Black Tot Royal Naval Rum (750ml)

We never chill-filter or sweeten Black Tot Finest Caribbean as we want to present it in its purest form.

Black Tot Finest Caribbean balances the tropical, honeyed notes of Barbadian rum, the full-bodied elements of Guyanese rum, the intense, funkiness of Jamaican rum and the stoned fruit flavours of Trinidadian rum, while allowing each of these individual styles to shine. We value transparency in everything we do, see below the breakdown of our blend.

Barbados

The birthplace of molasses rum in the Caribbean. Barbados is famous for elegant and balanced blends of pot & column still rum, with notes of tropical fruits, vanilla, and coconut.

Trinidad

Trinidad’s most famous rums have all developed out of distilleries founded in the 1900s, most notably Caroni and Trinidad Distillers. The former made a heavier style column still rum (no longer in operation), and was a core component of the original Navy Rum blend - while the latter is a lighter, cleaner style, and is responsible for continuing the heritage of Trinidad rum today.

Guyana

Guyana historically has been one of the world’s leading producers of molasses and rum, and it was undoubtedly the heart of the Navy Rum blend. Despite the consolidation of its many distilleries, Guyana’s historic stills have survived and continue to make a variety of rich and flavourful rum marques at Demerara Distillers.

Jamaica

Classically a heavier style pot-still rum, Jamaican distilleries like Hampden utilise longer fermentation times, as well as wild yeast strains, and the addition of dunder and muck pits in their molasses ferment to create distinctively big, funky flavours.
