The smell is very spicy, the alcohol bites you in the nose.
It's sweet, I get burned sugar, caramel, molasses and some ripe banana, also other ripe fruits.
In the background is some earth and a musty demerara note. With dilution it turns more earthy.

The taste starts with sweetness and demerara notes. Added sugar I think.
I get burned sugar and molasses, it turns very spicy. Then some honey and bitter notes.
In the middle I get more of the burned sugar, molasses and some fruits like in Jamaica OFTD. But they are overlapped by the sweetness. Then some honey of demerara rum and the spice.

It's too sweet in my opinion. Also very spicy, but this is not the problem.
I would rate it with 67 points.

Nose: burned sugar, caramel, molasses, ripe bananas and other fruits, earth, musty demerara note
Taste initial: burned sugar, molasses, spice, honey, some ripe banana, some bitter notes

If this is the 75% over proof then it doesn't get much better than this. Pour a glass add a good amount of water and sip straight. Beautiful flavours and smooth. Navy rum at it's finest. If you see a bottle, buy it.

Let's just hope that this franchise doesn't fall into a quality destroying/profit obsessed mega corporation like DIAGEO.

This is rum history.

I always remember faces of peoples which taste this with no idea of it being overproofed ... a bit. Pretty interesting. 7 is for all the fun.

Spicy and strong rum but equally well balanced and tasty. Great for mixing and baking.

The color is fine, the smell is ok, the taste was far better then expected. I´m starting to enjoy the overproofs.

The standard "Blue Label" Pussers in the UK is this 54.5% beast.

The best navy rum without a doubt

Here´s a great overproof rum to float in cocktails! it has flavor and punch! tastes to me like a strong version of the blue label Pusser`s minus the added sugar (20g/L) in the other one, and that`s an improvement.

Very strong, almost undrinkable, but I found it very tasty mixed with tea or Coca cola. I am not joking.
