Rumbullion! Navy-Strength 70cl
Rumbullion! Navy-Strength
Ableforth's took their famous Rumbullion! and bottled it at Navy Strength to create a much much 'bigger' drink. This is a warming concoction that would no doubt give a sailor vim and vigour on a stormy night!
Rumbullion! Navy Strength is made using a secret recipe with a Caribbean rum at its spicy core. Expect big fragrant flavours of cardamom, clove, and vanilla in this legendary spiced rum.
Navy Strength is 57% ABV. Many say that this was so that the gunpowder would still explode if the rum was spilt on it, but we can absolutely assure you that navy strength rum-soaked gunpowder is useless for firing cannon balls (not that we tried it... no, that would be dangerous).
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Incredibly intense. Buckets of vanilla combine with flamed orange zest. A spicy, rich nose with candied peels, cola syrup, cloves, cardamom and oak.
Palate
An absolutely huge whack of high-proof spicy vanilla-laden complexity. Cola cubes, molasses and honey, cinnamon and crème caramel. Hints of Valencia oranges with cloves and mixed peels.
Finish
An incredibly long finish, cinnamon, allspice and creamy custard apples.
Overall
If there was ever going to be anything that could top the standard Rumbullion! this is it. The additional ABV will be a welcome boon to those used to cask-strength whiskies, and those who appreciate deep and intense flavours.
