How does William Grant & Sons Diamond Wood‘s Old Navy Rum taste?
Old-school, dark and cocktail-ready
If you enjoy bold, dark Demerara mixers like traditional navy rums, this gives you big roasted caramel and molasses at a friendly price, though it’s rougher and more bitter than premium sippers.
Those sensitive to alcohol burn, drinkers who dislike bitter-roasted notes, or anyone avoiding heavily colored, old-school dark rums.

The smell is very strong, very spicy, roasted aromas, dark chocolate - extremely pleasant. A taste of coffee, dark chocolate, alcoholic burn, spices, oily finish.A very pleasant Navy rum.
Very cool dark color😎 It‘s a nice daily driver with some lovely notes of the barrel, dried fruits and dark chocolate, some hidden notes of licorice, prunes and cinnamon. In addition i found a bitter note, which I couldn‘t assign. The alcohol is integrated very well. Allez les bleus🤪
Eigentlich ein krass leckerer PLV-Hammer für „Nicht-Nerds“.
For the price, a solid rum. Not sweet but finely spicy.
