Virgin Islands, British | Aged | 40% ABV
Pusser’s British Navy Rum 15-Year is a blend of five rums from Jamaica, Guyana, Trinidad and Barbados which are produced in mainly wooden pot stills. The blend is aged for 15 years.
The company derives its name from the British Navy 'Purser' who distributed a daily 'tot' of rum ration to each sailor - a tradition which lasted from 1655 until 1970. In 1979 Charles Tobias obtained the rights to blend the original recipe of the British Navy Rum.
Pusser's British Navy Rum is casually known as “Nelson’s Blood” as a nod to the famous death of Admiral Nelson. After being mortally wounded in a naval battle in 1805, Nelson’s body was preserved in a barrel of rum.

A powerful rum that I find perhaps a little overwhelming. It has a great taste, but perhaps lacking in the smoothness that I seek in a rum.

Sehr gut, etwas rauchig im Geschmack. Eine Bereicherung für meine Sammlung :-)

Probably not the most complex or delicate rum you'll ever try, but if it's a big bold sugary dose of lovely rumness your after you've found it!

Easily the best of the Pusser's line. Good value for its price point.

This bottle just did not work for us.
Everyone made one drink then moved along.

For its price a really good rum. Easy to drink. Lots of taste and not too sweet. Am nearing the end of my bottle and you can't buy it in Sweden any more.

Being English and from a port city I really wanted to like this. Quite expensive and hard to find. But... if someone had given me a glass of this I would have guessed it was whisky... Lovely aroma but a harsh whisky , woody taste. I feel guilty but im really going to struggle to drink this bottle.. Will try again later and hope for a different result , maybe with ginger beer ? Bugger.....

Sweet notes of orange marmalade, cinnamon and sugar and finish of fruit and leather.

I love this rum. It has been hard to find in Canada but with good friends state side I get this as a wonderful Christmas gift. A very fine flavour like a true rum should be.

The blue label but smoother

Popping the cork you get a very wooded oak smell from it and only the tiniest trace of alcohol in there which a tinge of possibly fruit. In the glass it is much the same and looks much the same. Drinking it straight and neat is like drinking candy sweet on entry, a little bit of heat kicks it, the oak from the barrel trims it out and with some spice in the back and a vanilla finish. Much like the original pussers but more smooth however I Iiked the heat of the regular pussers. In diet coke it's smoothness and balance is its downfall, not many flavours (mostly oak cask) come out so this is much better neat. However it makes a very unusual tasting diet coke that some may love (bitter sweet). Honestly though I prefer the original Pussers blue label for its boldness and it's amazing Rum and coke taste. I say drink the blue plus it's cheaper!
