Pusser's Gunpowder Proof Spiced 54,5%vol. 0,7l
Product information "Pusser's Gunpowder Proof Spiced 54,5%vol. 0,7l"
Pusser's Gunpowder Proof Spiced Rum has been aged for a minimum of three years in ex-bourbon oak casks that have been newly burned out and then infused with a unique blend of Caribbean spices
refined.
For the Pusser's Gunpowder Proof Spiced Rum only rum qualities from Guyana (in the past days belonging to the British Empire) were used.
The "Empire Rum" has a long tradition in the old British seafaring, the rum suppliers of the British Navy sourced their barrels from all over the Empire, married them and let the blended rum mature for at least two years.
The supply for the British Navy was gigantic - the Navy held up to 250,000 gallons of rum at its peak.
The treasurer or purser was responsible for storing and handing out the daily rum ration on board.
Since the rum was stored on board with the gunpowder, the rum had to be of high alcohol content - the rum had to be "overproof".
To test this, rum was added to a small amount of gunpowder and checked to see if the gunpowder still ignited.
If the mixture ignited, the rum was "At Proof" - if it did not ignite, the outraged sailors had the right to throw the "purser" (or "pusser" overboard for having "watered down" their rum.
By the way: it was not until July 31, 1970 that the British Navy ended the daily distribution of the rum ration - the day went down in history as "Black Dead Day".
Nose: intense aromas of ripe bananas, plus dark chocolate, some vanilla and cinnamon - mild ginger aromas in the background
Palate: very smooth and mouth-filling - again the ripe bananas and chocolate, becoming slightly spicy with tones of ground cinnamon and fresh ginger root
Finish: long and very soft finish
