Old Navy Rum
Customer Rating
“Wonderful stuff. Rich and luxurious. Like a first rate sticky toffee pudding. Powerful when sipped neat but a little water opens it up and quenches the alcohol fire. Makes a delightful Cuba Libre. Has become an essential bottle to have.”
Mr James W Quinlan
Description
Wood's is made from the finest sugar cane and distilled in Guyana, South America. Bottled at 57% abv, it is one of the highest percentage volume dark rums out there right now, at least at this price.
Its smooth enough to enjoy neat, but also a killer choice for cocktails.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Toffee, cinnamon, cloves and pepper spice on the nose with thick caramel notes.
Palate
Muscovado sugar, soft toffee and just a hint of the spice detected on the nose. This is very smooth, belying its hefty abv.
Finish
Surprisingly short but thick and syrupy toffee notes abound.
Overall
A rich, dark rum with a high abv that retains its smoothness. Would work well in a dark and stormy, despite the fact Wood's is distilled in Guyana, and not Bermuda.
