    What people love most about Pusser’s Gunpowder Proof is its bold character and punchy flavor at a great price point. Reviewers often highlight notes of dark chocolate, molasses, and spice with hints of vanilla or coffee. It's popular both as a lively sipper and as a robust base for cocktails, especially classics like a Painkiller. For anyone seeking navy rum with depth and a warming kick, this is a repeat buy.

     It’s possible to find the Gunpowder Proof in three different blends. The oldest one consists of rum from Guyana, Trinidad and Barbados. After that it came with a blend of Guyana and Trinidad rum. The latest one just consists of different rum from Guyana. The one I review here is the latest one. I think it’s quite complex with a good balance between sweetness and dryness.

     Really enjoyable and great value, though I have a slight preference for the Black Tot at this price point for a navy rum.
