Pusser's Rum British Navy

One reviewer called it "decent as a sipper," and that's a fair read. This is the classic navy-strength Pusser's at 54.5%: dark, molasses-heavy, with caramel, a hint of lime, some coffee and leather. It runs hot and a couple of tasters found it a bit much neat. Others were pleasantly surprised once they gave it a second chance.

The community says
  • High-strength kick

5.5/10

I tasted an older version with 40%, which still comes through quite alcoholic. On the nose, clove and licorice stand out. The taste is dominated by the cask note. The alcohol is very dominant. There is a slight sweetness in the background.
