Mount Gay Eclipse Navy Strength is a limited edition release from Mount Gay, the world's oldest rum distillery. Bottled at the traditional naval proof of 57.1% ABV, this vibrant expression delivers bold, intense flavours that showcase the character of Barbadian rum at full strength. Expect bright notes of roasted pineapple, mocha, vanilla, and ripe banana in a rum that's perfect for cocktails or sipping for those who appreciate bold spirits.

Why You'll Love It

This is Barbadian rum at its most bold and flavourful. Navy Strength rums were historically bottled at higher proof to ensure they would still ignite gunpowder if spilled on board ship, and this tradition continues with Mount Gay's limited edition Eclipse Navy Strength. The higher alcohol content intensifies the flavours and creates a rum with exceptional presence in cocktails, while still maintaining the smooth, approachable character Mount Gay is known for.

Distillery & Production

Produced at Mount Gay Distilleries in Barbados, the world's oldest rum distillery established in 1703. This limited edition Navy Strength expression is bottled at 57.1% ABV, the traditional naval proof. The higher strength amplifies the natural flavours of the rum, creating a vibrant and bold expression of the classic Eclipse blend.

Tasting Notes

Rich amber colour with bright, vibrant aromas of roasted pineapple, mocha, vanilla, and ripe banana. The palate is bold and full-bodied with intense tropical fruit, coffee, caramel, and warming spice. The finish is long and powerful with lingering sweetness and tropical character.

Perfect Serve

Excellent in cocktails where its bold character shines through, particularly in Mojitos, Dark 'n' Stormys, or mixed with grapefruit soda water. Also enjoyable neat or with a splash of water for those who appreciate high-proof spirits. The intensity makes it perfect for tiki drinks and rum punches.
