Virgin Islands, British | Aged | 40% ABV
The Great British Admiralty first served rum daily to its Royal Navy sailors over 300 years ago until the ration was abolished in 1970. In 1979 Charles Tobias bought the recipe rights, formed Pusser’s Ltd. in the British Virgin Islands, and for the first time made the rum it available for public consumption.
Pusser’s British Navy rum today is the same blend of five West Indian rums as the British Admiralty issued to sailors.
Known as the “single malt of rum” Pusser’s British Navy rum is pot stilled using a similar method as that for single malt scotches, and with no artificial flavors is 100% natural.

Maybe not top notch, but certainly something I'd be happy enough to drink as part of my weekly allowance. Caramel and a hint of lime. Maybe some vanilla in there. Dark amber pour.

Un rhum de de la Navy avec une histoire sympa. Un nez frais et léger sur le caramel. A l'attaque une petite chaleur avec un boisé très fin, encore ce caramel mais pas envahissant et une note d'orange ou d'agrume. La finale est persistante laissant un goût de caramel une dernière fois. Se boit très bien. Très bon rapport qualité prix puisqu'il se trouve facilement a moins de 30€!

A strong rough taste which made it less easy to enjoy just sipping. I expected a bit more in flavour given the often superb reviews. It warms you up for sure, for which it deserves credit, but still a six as not so memorable. Based on tasting a 2cl sample.

It's a bit hard to believe this is only a 3 year old rum because it is very smooth. My only dislike is the pungent apricot note. I decided to try it in a rum and coke and it was great. For the price it's a pretty nice sipper or mixer if you don't mind apricot. 6.5

I like sweet rums so I wanted to give 6 but gave 7 because I feel that is a good one. Maybe if it was sweet would be much better. ;)

Takhle nějak by měl vonět rum. Co člověk to názor, ale já jsem se ho nemohl nabažit. Bohužel chuť oproti vůni trochu zklamala. Chutě jsou hodně přebité alkoholem, jehož projev je trochu drsnější a nejde si ho teda řádně vychutnat. Škoda.

Just another ordinary rum, not for me. 3-years is not enough indeed. I like overproof version, but not this one.
This stuff is overly sweet and tastes terrible. Not buying this again.

This is a unique rum with a blend of funk and caramel. I don't think I've found a rum that has the same flavor profile that makes great cocktails.

I cant see anything beating this at its price point

out of 10
This is a 8.5
There is a Caribbean themed bar around the corner that serves this rum almost exclusively in its mixed rum drinks and its didn't bring me any surprise when I found out it sold the most alcohol of all bars/restaurants in Michigan. I would make a large bet it is because of this rum, literally there is a employee at the place that makes nonstop painkillers, that is his job all day everyday.
Smelling the rum you know you got something good. When you first pop the top off (its corked) the aromas come out and even at a 3ft distance you can smell it. Smelling from the bottle you get a whole slew of hints of sugar, vanilla, alcohol,cask (oak), some fruit in there too. Now what makes it stand out for me is its boldness. Drinking it neat is fine, its not harsh at all, its warming but not harsh. But goodness it dives into your whole pallet front to back you know this is a real navy rum. In cola it doesn't even get tamed. You still get all the punch of the rum and its flavours. Its sweet with a nice heat and alcohol punch, the oak cask lingers in the back many other flavors can be found but im not the greatest and picking them all out and naming them distinctively.
