Rumbullion Navy Strength

Tried this at the uk rum fest. Best spiced rum I’ve had. I thought it might be a bit too strong but no, it hit my taste buds just fine.

At 57% it is less easy to drink than the rumbullion Spiced. The same flavours are there and is still delicious but a little overpowered by that extra strength removing the subtlety of the complex flavours from the original

GOOD stuff - chinamon? - stong - nice to sip - overpriced though

The great taste is backed by the the strength and this rum really packs a warmth as it goes down. I'll be definitely buying more of this!

fantastic rum, straight or mixed, surprised by how good it was (and I was initially put off by the slightly gimmicky bottle design), ableforth has got rum right, and I would recommend a try!.

Normal strength rumbullion is a bit clove heavy, but good. This is similar, but all the better for being richer and thicker tasting on the tongue. Very pleasing.

I have this and the XO and find this one needs a little water to make it drinkable. Spicy yet not overspiced.

Thoughts: A great rum full of flavour at Navy strength that doesn't really feel like it. The spiciness is present but not overpowering and complements the orange that is tasted throughout. Drank neat or on the rocks this really works well and was consumed as a taster dram. At £51 for the bottle, we'd happily buy this to get it on our shelves.

Rating: 8/10

Smell - orange, cinnamon, vanilla, dark chocolate, cardamom, cola cubes
Taste - caramelised orange peel, candied orange, liquorice, cloves
After Taste - long, subtle allspice and orange

The normal strength version is sublime. The Navy strength is amnesia in a bottle, forgetting the night before has never been so tasty.

A Navy strength with real hair! Great nose of Demerara and treacle. Plenty of punch but some good flavor too. Toffee and currant notes linger after the brown sugar dissipates. Good, smooth and strong. Would rank it higher but the finish is just too short. Nice rum!
