Barbados Mount Gay Rum Moves to Larger Facility
Friday, August 3, 2007 at 07:01PM 
Barbados Mount Gay Rum is said to be the "oldest rum in the world", and its history dates back to 1663.
Mount Gay continues to be internationally known, and recently the EU (European Union) provided part of the funding ($4.2 million), of the approximate $14.2 million to build a larger facility.
Previously the blending and ageing was done in two locations around the island, but the new facility in the parish of St Lucy brings the rum refining, storage, ageing and blending under one roof.
The Mount Gay Rum Tour is always a favorite attraction with Barbados clients and visitors alike.
