Mount Gay Distillery

Mount Gay claims to be not only the oldest rum distillery in Barbados, but in the world. The factual written evidence points to their being an operating distillery on the site in 1703, but many believe that rum had been produced there since 1493.The estate is named after Sir John Gay Alleyne, who managed the Mount Gilboa estate, where the distillery stood, in the 18th century.

The famous Mount Gay Eclipse brand, first created in 1910, has distinct floral and spice notes, much admired by rum connoisseurs and cocktail barmen alike.
