Mount Gay Eclipse Barbados Rum 700ml

Mount Gay Eclipse is the iconic flagship rum from Barbados — the birthplace of rum and home to Mount Gay, the world’s oldest rum distillery with roots dating back to 1703. This golden blend is the signature expression that captures over three centuries of Bajan rum-making mastery in every glass.

Crafted from a blend of column and copper pot still rums and aged in charred ex-bourbon oak casks under the Caribbean sun, Eclipse delivers a beautifully rounded, medium-bodied character. Named after the total solar eclipse of 1919, it remains the benchmark for classic Barbados rum — smooth enough to sip, versatile enough to mix.
