The James Gosling family business first produced Gosling Black Seal rum in 1806, and it is now the oldest surviving business on the island of Burmuda.
Gosling 'Black Seal' rum received it's name from the black wax originally used to seal the bottles. It is Bermuda's most widely exported product and considered the nation's national drink.

Spicy yet sweet, with a little burn that mellows out this is a great dark rum for mixing!
Just wanted the bottle for my collection. Have had it before won't by it again.
I like black rums so I would say it is worth a try on ice when the standards aren't available, but I wouldn't enjoy it that much if it was neat.
Dark, smooth and a staple for any serious rum bar. This is a baseline for comparing other runs. A very old and time tested rum. Great on the rocks and good for sipping.
it was ok at taste but a prettier bottle would be nice. sometimes the image adds to the taste.
I give it a weak 7 rating. It's quite good in a dark & stormy or with tonic. Its taste is unique, but not totally likeable on its own. I am glad to see this rum on more and more bar and restaurant shelves. However too often it is the only dark rum offered.
I’m always on the lookout for a new sipping rum and read somewhere that this could stand on its own. No. Just...no.
Pleasant and surperisingly light rum to be so dark.
Not over sweet and the No 1 rum for your Dark'n stormy.
Rich in flavour with molasses sweet finnish
I would not recommend this to drink pure. Mix with your favo soda,

Strong molasses flavor, pleasant aroma.
As many others have said, this is THE rum for making a good Dark and Stormy cocktail. It is not particularly a sipping rum, but is excellent for the special purpose of Dark and Stormy making (or, for that matter, for dousing fruitcake that is being aged). Well worth adding to your collection for variety.
