Gosling's Black Seal

Bought this to make authentic Dark & Stormy's and to that end this does not disappoint. Do not, however, recommend as a rocks or neat rum. A bit harsh for that.

Sickly sweet and no depth. It burns no via alcohol but by acidity. Ok for mixing I guess but there are far better rums at this price point (27 Canadian).

I tried making a dark and stormy with ginger beer and I couldn't finish it - just too strong. I thought it might be the beer, but then I mixed it with Kracken and it was much better. It just has too much of a bitter bite for me.

Bruges kun til Dark N' Stormy, men der er den også god.

Dark n Stormies are great crisp summer beverage!!
Also, made a double chocolate rum cake which was delicious.

This is a good rum for mixers or in a rum cake

This rum was my first introduction to rums that could be enjoyed straight, with no mixers to mask the already excellent flavor. Black Seal is very smooth. A great introduction to the world of rum.

Best cocktail rum lots of heavy flavours

Good being mixed. I wnj it with cola but ginger ale rocks it too

Which is a Dark and Stormy!
