  Gosling´s Black Seal Bermuda Rum 40%

  Item no.: 22227865407-17

  Without Goslings Black Seal, a Dark and Stormy would just be gin and lemonade under a different name, the rum is the actual cornerstone of Bermuda's signature cocktail.

  Expert description

  Goslings Black Seal is a Bermuda Rum matured in previously used, charred American oak casks and bottled at 40%.

  The rum comes from Gosling Brothers, a family-owned company founded in 1806 and still owned by the same family today. Black Seal is a blend of pot still and column still distillates, historically named after the black wax seal the family used to close bottles when the rum was sold loose from casks and poured into reused champagne bottles. Today, Black Seal is the cornerstone of the Dark and Stormy, the cocktail whose name Gosling Brothers has itself trademarked.

  Gosling's Gold Bermuda Rum 40%

  Item no.: 22227865407-301

  Where Black Seal is the dark, spiced classic, Gold is the lighter, more elegant side of the Gosling family's rum heritage.

  Expert description

  Goslings Gold is a Bermuda Rum matured around 5 years and bottled at 40%.

  The rum comes from Gosling Brothers, the family-owned Bermuda company that has produced rum since 1806. The Gold expression is a blend of pot still and column still distillates, composed to be lighter and more elegant than the house's darker Black Seal, with a golden colour and a profile that places more weight on fruit and spice than heavy sweetness. The rum won gold at the International Rum Festival Awards in 2003.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Creamy vanilla, stone fruit, dried peel and a hint of tropical fruit salad, underpinned by toasty oak and spice.

  Palate

  Soft and rounded with zest and fruit salad, a slight nutty note and pepper, balanced by cane sugar and damp wood.

  Finish

  Light, vanilla-driven and spiced, with a persistent, pleasant close.
