You get what you pay for as with all things and I wouldn't buy this rum again. Too much sweet molasses and treacle flavour for me.

I approached Lamb's Navy with a little trepidation since opinions on it seem sharply divided and I therefore had little to no idea what to expect. The nose is leathery with just a tiny hint of smoke and, I suppose, is kinda what you'd expect so no problems there. It's got a good, robust flavour which is better that some other cheaper mass market products but doesn't make much impression on the front of one's palate. There's lots of spice/burn and it has a nice finish with a pleasant aftertaste. It's also a good colour, which appears to be mostly from actual aging rather than from added chemicals as in certain other products I could mention. In conclusion, then, the Lamb's Navy Rum is better than I expected and I'd certainly buy it again whenever I'm really broke.

Tastes of burnt molasses, raisins and spice. The best for it's price. I was pleasantly surprised I exspected a flavour lacking dark rum like captain Morgan's, but this holds its own not great but not bad. Easy to drink

Very strange and horrible flavour to it. Could not finish the glass.

Heavy blackstrap molasses on the nose, mixed with raisins and other dried fruits, spices and a bit of leather, surprisingly tamed on the palate, starting as sweet toffee, quickly turning dry, little bit of spices, cocoa, and molasses again, the aftertaste not very pronounced, simple, spicy, short-ish. My overall feeling is - decent, smooth, uncomplicated navy rum for the masses. I can see other reviews mentioning the rum is quite sweet - the rum I bought is actually dry, sugar level here is close to zero - significantly less than in El Dorado 8, which has 15gpl. The blackstrap molasses component present in both smell and taste remind me of El Dorado 8y and Woods Navy. The only actual downside of this rum is the simplicity of its taste, which is understandable, considering the price. Decent quality, next to none sugar, low price, usable both straight or mixed - I am pleasantly surprised here.

Maybe when I was a teenager I could drink this, but not my cup of tea. I take Pussers navel rum plantation over dark and even Myers Jamaican dark over this. I understand it has a good following maybe as a mixer but not in my bar.

Very common in bars so if you can’t get something more exciting for as a mixer with coke this will do

One of the first rums I ever had but it didn't offer what I was looking for. Was bought a bottle as a gift and it's better than I remember but just very rummy rum with nothing jumping out at all. Probably works great with coke but I don't do mixers.

Hints of chocolate, specifically chocolate cake/brownie, currants, notes of fresh cut grass
Angle food cake/birthday cake flavor, vanilla, slightly oaky, goes down smooth
