Black Tot Rare Old
Aged 40 years
Demerara rum
Natural cask strength
For more than 300 years, the sailorts of the British Navy enjoyed a tot of rum for every day of their service. The loss of the rum nation on 31. July 1970 is mourned as Black Tot Day.
The rum the sailors dranks was aged in a solera containing rums of all aged, sourced from all over the former British colonies. The rich heart of this blends was Demerara rum from Guyana.
This wonderfully rich and weighty rum was made from dark, rich molasses. It was distilled on the Caribbean island of Guyana in 1975 and has been ageing in barrels for more than 40 years. It is a pure rum with no sugar added, and all the flavour comes from the combination of incredeble spirit, high-quality casks and time.
