Virgin Islands, British | Aged | 40% ABV
Pusser’s British Navy Rum 15-Year is a blend of five rums from Jamaica, Guyana, Trinidad and Barbados which are produced in mainly wooden pot stills. The blend is aged for 15 years.
The company derives its name from the British Navy 'Purser' who distributed a daily 'tot' of rum ration to each sailor - a tradition which lasted from 1655 until 1970. In 1979 Charles Tobias obtained the rights to blend the original recipe of the British Navy Rum.
Pusser's British Navy Rum is casually known as “Nelson’s Blood” as a nod to the famous death of Admiral Nelson. After being mortally wounded in a naval battle in 1805, Nelson’s body was preserved in a barrel of rum.

I am a huge fan of Pusser's, the red label in particular. I bought this one because I hoped it would be a little bit smoother and milder and thus give away some more hints of taste.
However, it doesn't seem to be considerably smoother or milder. The only thing that makes it stand out is the strong fruity/floral taste that isn't that noticeable on the other Pusser's rums.

Love Pussers original and the gunpowder proof is delicious but stronger. This is smoother and less sweet. Not as enjoyable

Being English and from a port city I really wanted to like this. Quite expensive and hard to find. But... if someone had given me a glass of this I would have guessed it was whisky... Lovely aroma but a harsh whisky , woody taste. I feel guilty but im really going to struggle to drink this bottle.. Will try again later and hope for a different result , maybe with ginger beer ? Bugger.....

und müsste mir für eine bevorstehende Schlacht Mut antrinken, dann würde mir Nelsons Blood sicher vorzüglich schmecken. Für einen Freitag Abend 2023 wars allerdings zu wenig. Zu sperrig, lantig und hart.

One of the classics... the only thing I don`t like is that it has 24g/L sugar added.

This is a tasty one, but...the sugar. Phew. It covers many aspects. Recommended - with some doubts.

Bought this for the decanter. A powerful, warming dry rum with loads of oak timber and whisky like characteristics. Not the kind of rum I like to drink straight. I would mix this instead. The 1 litre yachting decanter is a piece of art though.

Not my kind of rum.
Sharp alcohol taste with oak, and slightly bitter finish.

Loaded with added sugar, which completely masks this rum's true flavors. Big disappointment.
