Description
Due to the scarcity of our most mature casks, Master Blender Allen Smith creates just one annual batch of 1703 Master Select. 1703 Master Select is a blend of pot still and column rums, ranging from 10 to 30 years. Since its launch in 2009, rum experts globally have heralded the 1703 aromatic profile for its elegance and complexity, delivered in a full body and smooth finish. To create the award winning 1703 profile, Allen Smith hand selects each cask. The precious batch is then hand-bottled, hand-labeled, and hand-packed, resulting in limited quantities each year.
To fully appreciate the bouquet of complex notes it is best to enjoy 1703 Master Select neat. If you prefer rum on the rocks, we recommend slower-melting, spherical ice made of purified water. This prevents dilution and preserves the subtler notes of the rum.
Bottle Size: 750ml

“Every great story begins with a time and a place. For Mount Gay, that time and place is the Caribbean Island of Barbados, where we've been making rum since 1703. ”
Origins
Mount Gay Rum is the product of 315 years of knowledge, experience, and refinement applied to the process of making rum. Each of our rum’s complex flavours have been coaxed from natural ingredients: only the finest sugar cane molasses and pure Bajan water that's filtered through the coral heart of the island are selected to create Mount Gay rums.
A long-standing Barbadian tradition, Mount Gay rums are handcrafted from a blend of single column and double copper pot distillates and matured in toasted oak barrels, delivering aromatic, flavorful taste, body and refined character.
