ABV: 57.18%
Created by Luca Gargano, this must-try natural strength Navy bomb will be for the lucky few.
Reportedly the oldest blend of British Caribbean rums from the 21st century and with a pedigree that includes 20 year old Caroni, British Guyana rums over 15 years old and Jamaican pure single rums over 12 years old (Worthy Park, New Yarmouth) - it's easy to understand why this beauty is so spellbinding.

Tasting note: Brassy gold. Fabulous tears. Beautiful depths to the nose, on the drier side with scents of golden syrup and molasses, dovetailing into raisin cake, vanilla bean, coffee cremes, boiled lollies and continuing to develop over 5 minutes of swirling. Impossible to believe this is near 60% ABV, showing remarkable delicacy and restraint in a mildly bittersweet, drier styled attack, buidling superb waves of baking spice, raisins, orange spice cake, late liquorice strap and more through a never-ending aftertaste. Brilliantly blended. 54.18% Alc./Vol. Very limited stocks.
