Can drink near and it's good as a mixer burnt toffey

Part of the 2021 24 days of Rums calendar. Eager to share my experience!

This Rum is not my style. Perhaps I'm just not a fan of Naval Rums. Of course, I'm sure if I had been provided a daily rationing of this while serving, I might have a different perspective!

Travelling to London I made it my mission to try Pussers rum as it is difficult to find in Canada. I was not disappointed. This is an excellent tasting rum that goes down smoothly.

I'm not very good at describing how something tastes, but I love the flavor of this rum. It tastes quite a bit different from other rums I've enjoyed. It has just enough hogo. I enjoyed it so much in a "painkiller," I'll definitely keep in in my home bar. So why eight bottles instead of nine or ten? I'll leave those ratings for 15 year old $80 bottles.

If it spends in a barrel maybe 3-5 years more it would be perfect. Notes of wood, walnuts and molasses are absolutely fantastic - only roughness of alcohol causes it is not a sipper, but very high class mixer. Very possible that sailors before 1970 didn't have such a good rum.

There are almost no disadvantages, the advantages are also small. .,.,.,. Простая и оригинальная ёмкость. В аромате демерара и спирт. Во вкусе сладость, подгоревшая хлебная корка. Добавленный сахар есть, но он не создаёт проблем. Первые восторженные впечатления от британского стиля с кондитерскими мотивами ушли, оставив доминировать горечь. Потому воздержался от покупки второй бутылки.

So, I was not a huge fan of this rum. Not a sipper, not great as a mixer for rum and coke, not a great MaiTai rum. There is nothing wrong with the rum, but there are many better rums out there for the price that do so much more than this one does.

I was messing around with various cocktail ingredients and made a "cocktail" mixing this one part rum to 2 parts pineapple juice (not canned juice) pored over ice.

This make a delicious too-easy-to-drink cocktail. If it is too sweet you can acidify the pineapple juice with a small amount of ascorbic or malic acid. See link https://discoginferno.wordpress.com/2015/04/19/a-new-invention-lime-strength-pineapple-juice/
