Light gold color. Boozy, roasted, sweet, toasty aromas and flavors of honey, raisin, dates and baking spices with a velvety, shy, moderately sweet light-to-medium body and a hot, medium-length finish with notes of creme brulee and mint and baking spices. A vibrant, well balanced overproof rum that will punch up punches perfectly.

Overproof Rum

Serve in a Rocks Glass
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.
