Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of melted chocolate pistachio toffee, spiced raisin rum cake, cola in a pewter mug, and mineral ore with a lightly tannic, vibrant, fruity fat body and a warming, interesting, long finish with elements of chocolate orange peels, spiced nuts, caramel mocha latte, and peppercorns. A brawny, velvet brick of an overproof Rum that will elevate punches and high-proof cocktails ad infinitum.

About

Overproof Rum

Overproof Rum also known as Navy Proof Rum, is Rum in any style that is over 40% ABV (or 80 Proof) and is traditionally robustly flavored. Favored by British sailors from the early 1700s until the mid-seventies, it was often mixed with water to form a ‘grog’ to be drunk by sailors out at sea.
