Mount Gay Rum‘s newly released limited-edition expression, The Master Blender Collection: Pot Still is so exclusive that only 4,920 bottles are available globally; only 1,002 available in the U.S. It’s bottled at cask strength, 48% ABV. SRP: $170.
It’s the second edition in the Master Blender series and the first blend from the new female Master Blender, Trudiann Branker, Pot Still celebrates the original way Mount Gay made rum for about 200 years, using only rums distilled in double retort pot stills. After selecting a specific batch of pot still liquid, Trudiann placed it into virgin ex-whiskey casks for six months prior to bottling, to enhance the spicy and roasted nutty notes.
