About Black Tot 50th Anniversary Rum

Celebrating the 50th anniversay of Black Tot Day – the day when the last tot was distributed to Royal Navy sailors -- Black Tot 50th Anniversary Rum honors the original blend and marries the lost rums of the past with the finest modern rums of the present. A blend of rums from Jamaica, Barbados, Guyana, and Trinidad, it's bottled at navy strength. Comprised of rums from demolished distilleries and the remnants of the historic Navy Rum, this one-of-a-kind blend boasts an unparalleled balance of rums, delighting with flavors of licorice, vanilla, lime juice, dark chocolate, and dried mint on the sweet and full-bodied palate. Only 5,000 bottles of this commemorative limited-edition blend were released.

Based on a recipe by Black Tot's Head Blender Oliver Chilton, Black Tot Finest Caribbean Rum is a blend of the world's finest rums, coming together in a new and unique style. It’s inspired by a Royal Navy tradition, according to which tots of rum were administered to the sailors from the 1600s and until 1970. Bottled at 46.2% ABV, each individual flavor is allowed to shine individually. Bringing together rich flavors of Barbados, Guyana and Jamaica, expect tropical notes balanced by flavors of coffee and chocolate. Tropically aged, non-chill filtered and non-sweetened, this splendid rum should be sipped neat or enjoyed in premium rum-forward cocktails.
