Black Tot 2023 Master Blender’s Reserve Rum 700ml (ABV 54%)

Introduction

Black Tot Master Blender’s Reserve is inspired by the philosophy of Royal Navy rum blending. The 2023 release, like its predecessors, displays a wonderful range of origins – from Guyana, Trinidad, Jamaica, Barbados, Grenada and the ‘perpetual blend’ element of last year’s 2022 release and some original British Royal Navy rum.

Nose – Cooked blood orange studded with cloves blends with notes of ruby port and cinnamon.

Palate – Initially flavours of liquorice sticks, toffee and cherry drops create a rich and full palate with orange marmalade cutting through.

Finish – Rum and raisin toffee and chocolate notes linger in the finish with hints at cinnamon and nutmeg.
