BARBADOS GAVE RUM TO THE WORLD. 

The proud and vivid history of Mount Gay and its progress to international recognition matches closely the development of the island itself from being Britain's most valuable colony to become one of the world's most admired small developing states. 

This great rum starts with the blessings of nature; the abundance of sunshine, limestone filtered water, a land most suited to the cultivation of sweet sugar cane; but none of it could have happened without the sweat and toil of generations of Barbadians - slaves, labourers, overseers, managers, owners.........

THE MOUNT GAY RUM TOUR:

To relive and experience this enthralling story of the world's oldest rum, one must visit the Home of Mount Gay Rum, at Brandons, on the outskirts of Barbados' capital city, Bridgetown for the Mount Gay Rum Tour - deservedly one of the island's leading visitor attractions.

There you'll meet the Mount Gay Rum Tour Guides, friendly, knowledgeable, enthusiastic fans of this legendary spirit who just love telling its colourful story. From their vivid and compelling presentation you will discover the rich history of this renowned rum as you view antiquities and replicas from the past, learn of current triumphs and adventures, and be introduced to the Mount Gay portfolio of brands: 

» Mount Gay Eclipse
» Mount Gay Extra Old
» Mount Gay White
» Mount Gay Sugar Cane Brandy

Next you will be escorted to a Barbadian "rum shop style" theatre to view an informative and entertaining audio-visual show on the making of Mount Gay Rum. Learn about the time-honoured processes of refining, ageing and blending that makes Mount Gay Rum so uniquely special. 

Then, climax your tour with a fun-filled tasting session conducted by a "rum expert" and barman extraordinaire who will guide you and your taste buds through the various flavours of Mount Gay Rums. 

THE LUNCH TOUR
