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.

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...

Would give a higher rating if not for the fact it has been sweetened. Still pleasant sipping experience. Not a mixer at all.

Smell and tastes neat like lambs navy rum. Feet. However with a mixer it was a surprise, sweet, smooth and moreish. However it’s not a unique flavour.

The first thing you notice when you pop the cork is the smell. Rich and spicy and with a promice of somthing streng. The taste is rich and strong with a hint of sweetness. It explodes in the mouth with a little burn.

Complex Rum with nice finish. More sweeten and Little less burn then the Blue Label, but still strong. Smell is old and not so good. Strong tobacco. Next time the Blue Label again. More Bang for the Bugs.

Not a fantastic sipper but nice in a simple mixed drink. Had my bottle for years so has probably changed over time

Aroma is weak with some wooden tones. Taste is mainly sweet, with some vanilla and oak. Not complex. Aftertaste is short and a bit bitter.

Tried this while in Bangkok at an upscale Rum bar, lovely sipping rum which seemed to have more flavour once ice was added. I'll definitely keep an eye out for this bottle on my travels.

This is different that what I expected. The nose gives you a sense that it is going to be overpoweringly sweet. Fruits and molasses are evident. The initial taste is quite the contrary. There is a sweetness, light fruitiness, and the ending has a sweetness that creeps up. Very little burn to finish. I believe it would pair well with a cigar.

From the first sip this Rum grabs you and doesn't want to let go. Not an easy drink but not all that unpleasant either. I wouldn't describe this as an everyday sipping Rum but one for when you want a drink that will make you notice it
