Goslings 151 Proof Black Rum 75,5%

RX3968 Good Pot & Column Still Rum Under 50€

The Goslings 151 Proof Black Rum from Bermuda is an expertly crafted blend produced using both Pot and Column Still distillation methods. With a potent 75.5% ABV, this independent bottler's rum boasts a complex aroma of fruits, dried fruit, cinnamon, vanilla, and wood. On the palate, expect a flavorful experience with distinct notes of dried fruit, caramel, wood, spice, and brown sugar. This robust, overproof rum is a close competitor to the likes of Lemon Hart 151 and Pusser's, often making its way into dark n' stormy cocktails. Although high in alcohol, the well-integrated spirit keeps the intensity in check, ensuring a memorable and enjoyable experience for rum enthusiasts.

“151's always come with caveats. They are meant to be pinch hitters, usually in cocktails. This one is really not bad as far as these things go. The undisputed king is Lemon Hart 151, no other rum even comes close at that strength. For me personally I quite liked the 151 Pusser's expression as well, it is my second favorite. This Gosling's 151 comes in a close third. It is a good expression but there are better ones out there. If you've had a particularly bad day I recommend putting this in your dark n' stormy but if you have accesss to Lemon Hart 151, use that instead.”

“Very decent to sip, despite high ABV. Notes of vanilla and caramel (after airing for some time)”
