Pusser's British Navy ”Nelson’s Blood” 15-Year rum

Pusser's British Navy ”Nelson’s Blood” 15-Year

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.

At first I was surprise by kinda strong woody tones (unique taste for sure). But my journey ended with a happy end. I like trying a different feel but it didn’t end with the happy end in this case.

I am a huge fan of Pusser's, the red label in particular. I bought this one because I hoped it would be a little bit smoother and milder and thus give away some more hints of taste.
However, it doesn't seem to be considerably smoother or milder. The only thing that makes it stand out is the strong fruity/floral taste that isn't that noticeable on the other Pusser's rums.

Har ikke den store erfaring med navy-rom, men den her kan godt blive startskudet til jagten på mere af samme skuffe.

Je n'en attendais pas moins, marqué par l'alambic à repasse en bois, les 15 vrais années, pas de solera à l'espagnol, pur british. Blend jamaique, guyana et trinidad, au nez surprenant, pas de comparaison avec ce que je connais. en bouche, sirupeux, équilibré, doux et vanillé, boisé. Finish un poil court, donc on y retourne. Good sipper, thanks navy

My girlfriend enjoys rums with me and says Pussers is barely drinkable. We think it smells like old socks. My friends who drink much more than I do seem to like it, though. Avoid if possible.

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!

I can't accept that anyone could rate this Rum below an 8. One of the few that I drink straight.

For the price this rum can't be beaten and outclasses many costing more. An aged and mellow taste which is quite sweet with an after-taste of vanilla. Up there with the best.

Le Pusser's 15 est pour moi est une belle représentation du rhum "standard". Il est bien travaillé, il a du corps, un nez très agréable, une finale assez longue. En bouche il est commence sur une note moelleuse et sucré mais l'alcool se fait ensuite rapidement sentir pour virer sur quelque chose de plus viril ! Je trouve ce rhum très bien fait mais je ne sais pas pourquoi il m'ennuie un peu, je le trouve trop classique. Bref je ne pense pas racheter une bouteille quand il sera terminé mais l'avenir nous le dira...

note de glace au café au nez.
Rhum assez doux avec des notes de fruits mûrs voir cuits
Miel en fin de bouche
