Black Tot
Last Consignment Royal Navy Rum
(0.75l,
54.3%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
As every Rum buff (or buccaneer) will tell you, a tot was a daily ration given to sailors by the Royal Navy, and it amounted to about 70 milliliters of Rum.
Coming from long-lost distilleries, Black Tot Last Consignment brings you a piece of that history. It was bottled from antique stone flagons that contained the last stocks of Royal Navy Rum that were untouched for over four decades. This Rum blend actually slowly evolved for over 100 years.
*This bottle is a collector’s item; we will not be able to entertain any refunds or exchanges.
**Individual orders are limited to one item per person, as we wish to give everyone the opportunity to participate.
***Any kind of transit damage is insured and will be reimbursed.

Rum is why we measure alcohol proof. To make sure Rum wasn’t watered down, it had to be ‘proven’ by soaking gunpowder with it. If it was ‘overproof’ (higher than 57.15 % vol.), then the gunpowder would ignite, but if it wouldn’t, it was ‘underproof.’
Rum used to be accepted as a form of currency in Europe and Australia, a practice we should probably bring back into fashion.
Rum (usually) comes from molasses, the sweet and syrupy residue of refining sugarcane into sugar. Molasses is over 50% sugar, but it also contains significant amounts of minerals and other trace elements, contributing to the final flavor.
A little bit of etymology; nobody really knows where the word Rum comes from. The most popular suggestions are Rum (the Romani word for 'potent'), Rumbullion (an uproar), Saccharum (sugar in Latin), and Rummer (a Dutch drinking glass).
If the center of our galaxy had a signature scent, it would be Rum. Yup, astronomers studying a giant cloud in the Milky Way found a substance called ethyl formate, a chemical that smells suspiciously like Rum.
