Description

A legal deed dated 20th February 1703 confirms the existence of a "Pot Still House" on Mount Gay's sugarcane estate in Barbados, establishing them as the oldest rum producer in the world. Named in tribute to pioneer Sir John Gay, under whose stewardship the company prospered in the 18th century. Mount Gay is today an award-winning rum of outstanding quality.

From the oldest rum house in the world. A unique smooth and complex blend widely recognized by connoisseurs and experts alike. 

Selecting from their Cask Reserves, the Master Blender Allen Smith artfully blends these extraordinary rums with maturity profiles ranging from seven to fifteen years, to create the robust aromatic character of XO.
