Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of flambéed cherries done slightly burnt, molasses cookies, dark chocolate, and sun baked leather car interior with a round, crisp, dry medium body and a hot, compelling, long finish displaying suggestions of baked red fruit, toasted orange and molasses, and baking chocolate and cinnamon. A sweet and savory treat to enjoy after dinner and over ice.

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 the sailors at sea.
