  • Excerpt: So why do I call this a key rum? Because it is a good rum which should be remembered and appreciated; because it hewed and hews as close to the line of the old navy rums as we’re ever likely to get; because it’s 15 years old and still affordable; and because for all its blended nature and therefore indeterminate origins, it’s just a well-made, well-aged product with a whiff of true historical pedigree and naval heritage behind it. Even now, so many rums down the road, I remember why I liked it in the first place.

  • Excerpt: This is fine but unremarkable. Its a bit sweet, I think they went a hair overboard dosing, but the flavors are nice and the mouth feel is rich. I need to try other Pussers expressions but I bet an increase in proof would really help here.

  • Intro:

    Supposedly a special blend of 5 West Indies rum in the ol Royal Navy days - this modern expression is a blend of 5 rums, aged for 15 years that are sourced from Guyana and Trinidad.

  • Nose:

    Sticky rum cake, overripe banana, guava, toffee, lime, faint oak.

  • Taste:

    Medium, no heat. Sweet, toffee, maple syrup, overripe fruit, honeydew, cocoa, milk chocolate

  • Finish:

    Medium no heat syrupy maple, brown sugar, molasses, overripe banana

  • Overall:

    This is fine but unremarkable. Its a bit sweet, I think they went a hair overboard dosing, but the flavors are nice and the mouth feel is rich. I need to try other Pussers expressions but I bet an increase in proof would really help here.
