Gosling's Black Seal

Made my first ever batch of aged eggnog (made 3 gallons!) and used this as the rum. The final product was phenomenal!

Can't stand this stuff straight, or even mixed with coke.. But there's nothing better for a dark n stormy (and technically nothing else legal, according to Bermuda!)

Goslings have made this Rum to go with Ginger Beer (known as a Dark and Stormy). This was my first introduction to interesting Rum (ie not something that you find served in every bar when you ask for a Rum and Coke) and remains one of my favorites to have as a long drink

I'm enjoying this alot more than I thought I would. Black seal has alot more 'balls' and depth, complexity and flavour-journey than many aged rums I've had. It may actually make the collection. Fast becoming my favourite

Has it's own niche in the rum drinking world...with Lime and Ginger Beer!
Nothing works as well... def a reason to keep a bottle in your cabinet.

One of the first dark rums I ever had and thus remains a soft spot forever. Very strong flavour, actually quite herby and medicinal but in a pleasing way. Full flavour when held in the mouth with a noteable afterburn but again very pleasing. Of course the number 1 choice for a dark and stormy no other rum will do for that but one I really enjoy sipping with a single piece of ice inside, I find this loosens up the intense flavours. Not a rum for novices as I find it quite cultured.

You can't beat a Dark and Stormy. Also mixed with Goslings Gold makes the best rum Swizzle

Tasty but feels a tad synthetic, spice? Thin on palate and oak absent. Different from other widely available black rums. Must be used when making a "Dark 'n' Stormy" (trademarked).

Un des premiers rhum que j'ai acheté. Je le trouvais pas mal. Sans doute mieux pour être mélangé qu'à boire pur. Je devrais en racheter pour le noter correctement.

For the price you cannot beat this rum. ($23/handle on sale) Mixed with coke zero and lime, this is our staple in my coastal corner. Praise be the Black Seal!
