Pussers Miniature Gunpowder Proof British Navy Rum 5 cl 54.5%

The same powerful naval tradition, just in pocket size - a 5 cl release for anyone who wants to taste before buying the full bottle.

Expert Description

Pusser's Miniature Gunpowder Proof British Navy Rum is a spiced Rum from Guyana, bottled at 54.5% in a small 5 cl bottle.

The contents are identical to the full 70 cl bottle: a powerful, spiced rum built on Pusser's original naval recipe and bottled at "gunpowder proof" - the classic strength at which the rum could historically ignite gunpowder if spilled on it. The miniature format makes it ideal as a taster, a gift, or for the travel bag.

The Pusser's name comes from "purser", the naval officer responsible for issuing sailors' daily rum ration - a tradition that ran right up to 1970.
