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.

not as good as gosling gold by a long mark, but ok for a mixer and so much better than Myers imo.
Note de dégustation de ce rhum pur, je ne l'ai pas encore testé en Dark'n'stormy :
- Nez : vanille dès sortie de la bouteille, des notes de noix de pécan grillées et de sirop d'érable après de longues minutes d'aération
- Bouche : en bouche, c'est un rhum assez acide et boisé, avec des touches végétales de tabac et mentholées
- Finale : pas forcément longue et n'offre pas de nouvelles notes
I recently started to stock rums for tiki cocktails. While I need a dark Jamaican, I also wanted to try a dark & stormy that was authentic. Since I already had Whaler's, I wasn't going to buy two more dark rums.
This smells of hickory smoke and tastes bitter and, well, that's it. The bitterness and sharp heat covers up anything else I could possibly taste.
Ginger beer is spicy and ridiculously sweet so the bitterness is a good counter point I suppose.
Unfortunately, both are hot in different ways making me feel like there is no reason to ever try this or a dark n stormy again.
Edit: So trying this in other drinks that required a dark rum and I've changed my mind and upgraded my rating. The rich dark character really helps an overly sweet drink and makes it comforting.
Made an account just to rate this as the first! Rum newbie, this one is really showing off how diverse rum can be!
Deep aroma, beautiful long lasting caramel and cocoa notes. Sip is warming with a creamy mouth feel, long finish. Peppery notes on top of the body. Lovely, excited to mix with it as well.
Tastes old. Not aged, old. Like when you got your first round of shots when you were 16 or like what you’d get if you asked for rum in old, old England.
Probably makes a couple of ok cocktails, but just tastes sort of weird and there’s far nicer options to mix with.
A bit like an 80s version of Kraken I guess.
This was an ok rum, but only use it for mixed drinks. It is good with a D&S , but definitely not a sipping rum in my opinion.
'well balanced and nuanced with butterscotch, vanilla and caramel'
"Goslings Black Seal rum review by The Ultimate Rum Guide"
The nose is very pungent. Heavy thick treacly molasses and sweet caramel.
"It’s initially sweet like liquorice, there is a little heat and spice in the mix and the finish is long and slightly bitter."

Look, it's a mixer, but it's a good mixer. Better than Cruzan for a balanced Jungle Bird.
