A super high strength dark rum from Bermuda. Despite the 75.5% of Gosling's Black Seal 151, this is a very smooth rum, and it's utterly delicious. Well worth trying.
I had never tasted a spirit of this proof before, it is very strong and a bit too harsh for me to drink neat. However mixed with as a dark and stormy it is exceptionally good. I'll be back for another of these.
I must admit I don't like it neat, but i love it when mixed with other rums and/or a cold mixer. Smooth and strong. My favorite rum to have with rum.
Gosling 252 is a smooth but fiery rum, despite its strength I find it lovely with just one ice cube. Brings out the flavour and allows one to sip it without using mixers. Not my first bottle nor my last
A great sailing friend loves this in his dark and stormies. It’s not easily available here so brilliant to find. Amazingly well packaged. It’s own personal air bag! Very sweet and cozy.
An intriguing bottle with all the warnings not to open it near a flame etc. Used it in a Hawaiian Hammer cocktail to very good effect. Booze on the Rocks posted the recipe on YouTube and I shook it with a whole tray of small ice cubes. A very tasty and fruity drink though it definitely had whooomph!
