  Pussers British Navy 15 years old Charred Oak Barrels Rum 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0343

  Until 31 July 1970, known as Black Tot Day, every British naval officer received his daily rum ration. This 15 year old edition recreates the historic, Admiralty-approved blend.

  Expert Description

  Pusser's British Navy 15 Year is a Caribbean Rum aged 15 years in charred oak barrels and bottled at 40%.

  The rum builds on the Admiralty-approved blend that was historically heavily influenced by rum from the double wooden pot stills of Port Mourant, Guyana, in operation since 1732. Pusser's Rum carries on the tradition of the daily rum ration that all British naval personnel received up until Black Tot Day in 1970, and has been dubbed "the single malt of rum" by Forbes for its craftsmanship.

  The result is a rich, complex rum, where Demerara sugar and dark dried fruits meet caramelised biscuit and spice.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Classic Demerara sugar, molasses, dried fruits, island spices and caramel.

  Palate

  Caramel and dark dried fruit with a pleasantly smooth finish on charred oak.

  Finish

  Vanilla like caramel biscuits and baking spice.

  Pussers British Navy Blue Nelsons Blood Barbados Rum 40%

  Item no.: 22227865449-252

  From 1655 to 1970, every sailor in the British Royal Navy received their daily rum tot, a fixed recipe kept secret for over three centuries. When the Royal Navy ended the tradition, Pusser's secured the right to recreate the exact recipe for the public.

  Expert Description

  Pusser's Rum British Navy is a Rum from Barbados distilled from a blend of five stills and aged in charred oak barrels, bottled at 40%.

  The rum is built on the original recipe the Royal Navy used for the daily rum tot from around 1655 until 1970, when the tradition was discontinued. In 1979, American entrepreneur Charles Tobias gained access to the previously secret recipe and established Pusser's Rum Ltd on Tortola in the British Virgin Islands to recreate it for the public. The name "pusser" is navy slang for the officer responsible for the ship's rum store and the daily ration.

  The rum is made entirely from natural ingredients with no added flavourings, built on a blend from five different stills, including the world's last remaining wooden pot still.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Classic Demerara character with brown sugar and molasses.

  Palate

  Leather, tobacco, dried sultanas, nutmeg, clove and cinnamon.

  Finish

  Soft oak, caramel and rich English toffee.

  Pussers Gunpowder Proof British Navy Rum 70 cl 54.5%

  Item no.: 22227865449-280

  Before modern hydrometers existed, the British Navy tested rum strength by pouring it over gunpowder and lighting it. If the powder still ignited with a steady blue flame, the strength was correct. Gunpowder Proof is Pusser's tribute to that exact strength.

  Expert Description

  Pusser's Gunpowder Proof is a Rum from Barbados and the British Virgin Islands, bottled at the original admiralty strength of 54.5%.

  The rum is built on the same historic recipe as the house's standard British Navy expression, but is bottled at the precise "gunpowder proof" strength the navy used for its gunpowder test, back when alcohol meters didn't yet exist. The blend follows the admiralty's original recipe, as used until the Royal Navy officially discontinued the daily rum tot on 31 July 1970.

  The higher strength gives a more concentrated flavour experience than the standard expression, with a deeper, more warming character that underscores the rum's roots as a spirit built to hold up on a ship for months at a time.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Pungent molasses, treacle, caramel, honey and vanilla, complemented by oak, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger.

  Palate

  Full-bodied and robust with caramel, banana bread, spice cake and roasted nuts.

  Finish

  Long, warming and lightly smoky with lingering molasses and oak.

  The name Gunpowder Proof comes from the historic method sailors used to verify their rum tot hadn't been watered down by a dishonest quartermaster: mixed with gunpowder, the rum still had to be able to ignite the flame.

  Pussers Gunpowder Proof Spiced British Navy Rum 70 cl 54.5%

  Item no.: 059763-615-335

  Gunpowder and rum share a long, common history in the British Navy - this release is even named "Gunpowder Proof" after the old method of testing a rum's strength by igniting gunpowder soaked in it.

  Expert Description

  Pusser's Gunpowder Proof Spiced British Navy Rum is a spiced Rum from Guyana, bottled at a full 54.5%.

  Pusser's is built on the original recipe used by the Royal Navy for its daily rum rations until 1970, when the tradition was stopped. This release is spiced with selected spices on top of the powerful Guyanese rum base and bottled at "gunpowder proof" - the old strength at which the rum could ignite gunpowder if spilled on it, a simple but effective way to test alcohol content before hydrometers became common on board.

  The name Pusser's is slang for "purser", the officer responsible for issuing the navy's rum rations - a duty that made the name a fixed part of British naval history.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Spiced, with dark molasses, pepper and a hint of smoke.

  Palate

  Powerful and warm, with clear spice and a solid alcoholic punch.

  Finish

  Long, burning and spicy.

  Pussers Rum Night Watch Black Strap 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 059333-859

  There is navy rum, and then there is Black Strap. Pusser's Night Watch takes the classic British navy style and turns up the darkness with a dose of some of the world's finest blackstrap molasses.

  Expert Description

  Pusser's Rum Night Watch Black Strap is a Blended Rum from Guyana and the USA, bottled at 40% with no added colour.

  While most Pusser's rums are made exclusively from Guyanese rum, Night Watch takes a different path, blending Guyanese rum - some of it distilled on the historic wooden still - with an American rum made from Louisiana blackstrap molasses, distilled at Hilton Head Distillery in South Carolina. The release was launched to mark Trafalgar Day on 21 October and is limited to a small production run.

  The combination of the two rum styles produces a deep, dark and characterful rum in the classic navy style, clearly inspired by the rum historically issued to sailors in the British Royal Navy.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Rich and dark, with molasses, liquorice, burnt sugar, coffee and dark caramel.

  Palate

  Bold and sweet with syrup, dark chocolate, toasted spice and a light smoky edge.

  Finish

  Long, warm and full-bodied with lingering molasses and spiced sweetness.

  Pussers Select Aged 151 British Navy Rum Guyana Rum 70 cl 75,5%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-1972707

  151 is the number that gives the bottle its name, a reference to the old British navy's overproof standard, back when rum was still part of sailors' daily ration.

  Expert Description

  Pusser's Select Aged 151 is a Guyana Rum, a blend from Pusser's Rum, aged a minimum of 3 years in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at cask strength, 75.5%.

  The rum is based on distillate from Guyanese molasses, including from the famous Port Mourant wooden double pot still, one of the last of its kind still in operation. Select Aged 151 closely follows the Admiralty's historic regulations for the official navy rum ration, which was issued to British sailors up until 1970, when the tradition was finally abolished. Pusser's Rum later took over the rights to continue the recipe and the name.

  The style is intense and powerful, with a deep, dark sweetness carrying the entire historic overproof heritage forward.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Treacle, stone fruit compote and dark cane syrup, with marzipan and tobacco.

  Palate

  Intense caramel and molasses, dark chocolate and black coffee, with a hint of strawberry jam and liquorice.

  Finish

  Long and smoky, with burnt wood and lingering spice.

  Pussers Spiced British Navy Premium Spirit Drink Rum 70 cl 35%

  Item no.: 22227865449-7061

  Pusser's famous navy recipe meets the spice cabinet. The Spiced edition builds on the original British Navy heritage, layering vanilla and warm spice on top of the molasses weight.

  Expert Description

  Pusser's Spiced British Navy is a spiced Premium Spirit Drink based on Pusser's classic navy rum recipe and bottled at 37.5%.

  The base is the same molasses-based rum blend Pusser's has produced since 1655, when the British Royal Navy issued sailors their daily rum ration, a tradition that only ended in 1970. Pusser's has preserved the original recipe and, in this edition, adds natural spices such as vanilla, cinnamon and a hint of nutmeg, giving the drink a sweeter, more approachable profile than the classic British Navy expression.

  That makes the Spiced edition a natural bridge between the historic navy rum's heavy molasses character and a modern spiced rum style.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Vanilla and warm cinnamon over a dark molasses base, with a hint of nutmeg.

  Palate

  Sweet and spiced with caramel, vanilla and a round molasses weight.

  Finish

  Medium length and warm, with a closing sweetness of spice and caramel.
