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.

At our last Naval reunion this was used at TOT time for our ration. It was just like the rum we were once issued and is definately not a sipping rum. It must be mixed as regulations demanded. I find the price is too high for the rating.

Supposedly the original Pain Killer recipe used this. I'll pass.

I recognize that I rarely enjoy British Navy style rums, and I am once again reminded why. The finish on this rum is reminiscent of burnt Band Aids. It’s not worth a second voyage for me.

Dangerous stuff. Could not have as first drink as very strong and overpowering.
A strong rum that warms your soul but to the expense of a looker room taste in the middle but all in all land on the sides of the tongue

I know what I like and its not this just not my cup of tea prefer light spiced than the dark rums
Good color, nose a bit harsh with leather and sweet notes, maybe prunes. I find the palate a bit strong for sipping or on the rocks. Astringent at first with strong notes of wood but undefined.

Smell is weird but not that bad. Molasses overtakes the whole tasting experience.
Decent mixer, but nowhere near my go-to.

Je z něj výrazně cítit dřevo a cosi připomínající hovězí kůži. Chuť zajímavá, ale na mě příliš agresivní a ostrá. Vhodná spíš pro drsný námořníky než pro mě. Ale má svůj styl.
