Black Tot Last Consignment British Royal Naval Rum

It is an amber color. Tastes very much like a demerara rum. Very thick molasses taste, but not high in actual viscosity.

Excellent

Rum byl smíchán z rumů ze zásob britského královského námořnictva, kde byl po 40 let skladován v kamenných lahvích a demižonech.
Uveden na trh byl v červenci 2010 (na 40. výročí Black Tot Day) a údajně trvalo rok a půl, než byl výsledný blend hotov.
Guyanská složka v rumu by měla pocházet z Port Mourant.
Vyrobeno mělo být 3000 lahví.

Aroma: Tropické ovoce (banány, kokos, mango a pomeranče), exotické dřevo, skořice. Závan hřebíčku, tabákového kouře a zemitosti. Nádherná vůně.
Chuť: Ovocná, hořké kakao, opět závan koření, decentně se ozývá dřevo.
Dozvuk: Hořké kakao, spálenina a nálož hořkého dřeva. Nic víc. Delší a velmi hořký.
Sladkost: 0/3
Ochutnán vzorek
Nádherná vůně a plná chuť. Potud vynikající, ale dozvuk je překvapivě jednodušší a na můj vkus až příliš hořký. Guyana se opravdu nezapře. Celkově jsem si však pochutnal.

And it was terrific. About half a sip in I realized that it was something unique. Lots of black pepper and some pepper green taste... Like someone dabbed arugala in it? Also lots of brown sugar butter flavor. Terrifically complex. All in all I loved it and would love to get a bottle to savor. But alas... The cost.

It had a sweet smokiness that reminded me of a sweetened Scotch. Given the gunpowder strength it did not have nearly the bite that I expected. Overall it was a decent rum. I would not recommend buying a full bottle as the price to quality ratio just does not make sense. However, if you cam find a 1 to 2 ounce pour at a high end bar, it worth a try for the historical significance of the rum

Thick, sweet, butterscotch and molasses, followed with leathery, cocoa, vanillin, apricot/mint funk. Really fun to try!

Flagon stored in 1970 and sealed by HM Customs — this is as close to rum running history as you can get.
A rich rum with a amazing aftertaste. I recommend enjoying on the rocks and exhaling through your nose for a full rich-flavoured experience. If you can, drink sea side to add the smell and sound of this rums intended heritage! (I enjoyed mine at the edge of the Gulf of Mexico :) )

Sweet ginger cake and vanilla on the nose, very pleasant. Tropical fruit and sticky ginger cake palette. Harsh finish at first followed by toffee.

Very impressive blend of different styles. Very well balanced.

Tastes like nothing else. Leather, toabacco. Like Pussers but harsh and sophisticated

This one is smooth and has quite a bit of character. I had this one neat over dinner at a restaurant and loved it. Never heard of it, and only tried it off of the bartenders recommendation. After sitting for a while, the taste was still the same. I love when I can find a rum I can slowly sip without the flavor profile changing too drastically. The color of this rum is pretty dark, not too sweet and not too potent.
