God bless the Queen! And Mount Gay!
Eclipse Silver Post by mamajuana » Wed Mar 11, am I decided to bring this up as Mount gay has renamed and changed the bottle and label on their white rum offering. They dropped the word "Eclipse" from the white rum offering. I had two bottles one produced June of the new bottle label and one Dated Jan 31st which I surprisingly just bought a year ago. I won't make this long and drawn out here is the basic style comparison.
New Bottle: "There is a lack of boldness which I guess should be expected It is not very interesting on the palate either rather neutral very faint spice, alcohol, bland, rather subdued nose. I would easily mistake this for a rum of other location not a Bajan style as one would expect of Mt.
Gay and Barbados. All the flavor is missing. The taste is clearly of a Bajan style with a quick entry to a flavorful spicy kick which remains smooth in its exit yet full of flavor in its finish. A perfect example as to what one should expect from a Barbados white rum. A classic example in fact excellent in all facets of the style.
Gay has made an excellent rum into one created for the masses to mix rum and cokes with that don't take their rum straight or expect any flavor.

A sad day indeed. The quality of this product has taken a hit from They have turned this rum almost vodka-like. Post by The Black Tot » Wed Mar 11, pm I must confess, I don't know my white rum very well yet, since to this point I've focused on ambers and anejos. How would you say the old eclipse compares with Seale's Tommy Bahama white rum, for example?
