Review by Alex1981
Great Navy blend, heavy on the dark fruits, leather, tobacco paired with some citrus freshness and slight estery notes. Great complexity with well integrated alcohol, fun sipper! Die Referenz zwischen 2021/2022/2023
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
06.10.2023 retasting between 2021 - 2022 - 2023 and it lost a few points. ------ What a wonderful rum. The base should be the same as the 50th anniversary but this one is more fruity and there are more esters in comparison. A great rum and the quality to price is very good. I was so lucky that they allowed me to buy two bottles :-) Enjoying this nice rum again and I stand by my score. Very good rum especially thinking about the price tag. Retasting this one today and I really like it. Good that I have several backup bottles.
Review by Basti
The longer the bottle is open, the more I like it. Lots of fruit, some esters, spices and wood on the nose. You could almost think you had a Jamaican in your glass. Unsurprisingly, the T.D.L. predominates on the palate, making up the majority of the blend at over 40%.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Really nice blend! Great harmony of pineapple, passion fruit, coffee, vanilla caramel and dark chocolate with tobacco and spices. Makes really fun the thing!
Review by zabo
Very tasty, palatable fellow. In my opinion, it's not necessarily the ultimate blend, but it's certainly a success. As it is now available again and sometimes even below the release price, it is definitely worth considering buying another bottle as an easy sipper. If you can get it cheap, it's definitely worth it.
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
I like it very much. Significantly more Jamaican content than the other special bottlings. For me, slightly worse than the 2020 bottling and ranked second among the special bottlings. For 120 euros, the price-pleasure ratio is also good.
Review by Tim
Very harmonious blend from Jamaica and Guyana. The ester notes have been well tamed and blend well with the chocolate, coffee, spices, nuts and caramel, a hint of tobacco and licorice. Very tasty in the mouth too, although the Guyana component is heavier here and is joined by light roasted/smoky aromas.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,7:On the nose, very enticing first impression, with light esters, varnish, overripe banana, mango, pineapple, dried fruits and roasted wood notes with caramel, dark chocolate, spicy with vanilla, some molasses, vegetal and herbaceous. On aeration, medicinal rubber and copper are stronger, citrus and yellow fruits, allspice, quite later raspberry, black berry, dried currants and raisins join the play. 8,7:On the palate, the attack is tasty, a bit sweet and medicinal with varnish, light esters, copper, with roasted wood notes like nuts, caramel, dark chocolate, spicy with nutmeg, vanilla and much later umami, as the fruits are mango, banana, yellow, dried and citrus, tobacco from molasses.After a nice rest, for a while, the rum is rather vegetal, darker with a licorice, vanilla joins, then another fruit attack with ripe strawberry, candied, maracuja and pineapple.The rum is well balanced, rounded, but still complex. 8,7:The finish is long, complex, dry, a bit dirty, there is rubber again, some smoky hints, crunchy bread, herbaceous molasses, lots of roastedness from the palate, coffee is an additon, variety of fruits from passion fruit to cherry, raspberry and strawberry, some of them candied...
Review by Rodolphe
Tasted quickly on the rumfest, I said to myself that we were well in the line of the 2020 and that it was a very beautiful navy blend.
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Sweet blend of high quality, but you notice the alcohol, so slight point deduction. Nevertheless, tasty.
Review by Tschusikowsky
Delicious blend. Relatively fruity, but nice concentration and embedding of fruit flavors. Strong Jamaican influence, but really good. The 2020 version I still like the best from the series.
Review by Chrischi78
In der Nase milde Früchte, Blumen, Gewürze und etwas Holz. Am Gaumen zunächst würzig und kräftig, dann süß-fruchtig mit floralen und holzigen Noten. Mittellanger, würziger Abgang. Ein eigenständiger, spannender Rum und wirklich guter Genuss.
Review by Tom Buteneers
Maybe somewhat less accessible in comparison to the 50the anniversary. But also very very nice
Review by Djehey
A rum that everyone enjoys, and after almost finishing my bottle, I understand why.You can tell it's a blend but it's so complete and balanced that it can't displease.They were lucky in the British Navy!
Review by ilRummista
A very good navy rum. Strong but not too much, it is also fresh on the palate at times but still remains a product of great character (even on the nose). My favorite part though is the finish, really pleasant and also fairly long

"I certainly have anyway. As is often the way my previous years bottling is long gone. So I can't do a head to head comparison. I do know that this is definitely in the same league as the 50th Anniversary and I really have no hesitation in giving a rum..."Read full review →
