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.

This is fairly smooth and totally decent. It tastes and smells a lot like Wray And Nephew Overproofed Rum but without the heat. It's pretty good stuff and it is the bottle that gave birth to the Painkiller, which is a delicious cocktail! I can safely say that it has a delicious (very mellowed) baking spice (especially ginger) taste to it. Worth buying!

Versatile rum at an incredible value. Not stellar neat, but agreeable on its own, comfortable on the rocks, and flexible enough to be used in a variety of drinks (not just the famous Painkiller). Tastes of molasses, vanilla, and coffee. A staple in my “workhorse” bar rotation
could sip this all day. Worth being on your shelf.

Næse: fyldig sødme. Smag: kraftige smagsnoter af træ. Eftersmag: lang og rund.

If you leave a few drops in the glass, there is a very intensive smell of smoke. The taste is average and does not leave any special memories.

One of my first dark rums. Unique flavor do Pusser’s, almost a little salty. Great mixer with fruit juices.

Poměr cena/výkon velmi příjemný
Great rum, just as simple as that. Nice colour, taste of oak, vanilla, orange and caramel. Not as defined in taste as the Gunpowder Proof. First sip is balanced and no strong burn, smooth without being week and anonymous. Great value and a strong recommendation from me.

This is a 8.5
There is a Caribbean themed bar around the corner that serves this rum almost exclusively in its mixed rum drinks and its didn't bring me any surprise when I found out it sold the most alcohol of all bars/restaurants in Michigan. I would make a large bet it is because of this rum, literally there is a employee at the place that makes nonstop painkillers, that is his job all day everyday.
Smelling the rum you know you got something good. When you first pop the top off (its corked) the aromas come out and even at a 3ft distance you can smell it. Smelling from the bottle you get a whole slew of hints of sugar, vanilla, alcohol,cask (oak), some fruit in there too. Now what makes it stand out for me is its boldness. Drinking it neat is fine, its not harsh at all, its warming but not harsh. But goodness it dives into your whole pallet front to back you know this is a real navy rum. In cola it doesn't even get tamed. You still get all the punch of the rum and its flavours. Its sweet with a nice heat and alcohol punch, the oak cask lingers in the back many other flavors can be found but im not the greatest and picking them all out and naming them distinctively.
