HAMILTON BEACHBUM BERRY'S NAVY GROG BLEND RUM 1LT ED HAMILTON; DISTILLED AT WORTHY PARK ESTATE; MINISTRY OF RUM

History, Many great Tiki cocktails cant be made with just one rum. The Navy Grog is a prime example. Don The Beachcombers 1940s classic calls for an ounce each of rich Jamaican rum, dry Puerto Rican rum, and smokey Demerara rum. But sourcing all three expressions isnt always smooth sailing. Now Ed Hamilton and the Bum have made it easier and tastier and thriftier. Their new Hamilton Beachbum Navy Grog Blend is a carefully selected combination of five different Caribbean rums from Jamaica, Guyana, and the Dominican Republic, all artfully mixed into one easy bottle. And concentrated at traditional Navy Strength (114-proof), you get less dilution and therefore more flavor. You also use less rum per drink, giving you more Navy Grogs for your buck. But why stop at Navy Grogs? The Hamilton Beachbum Navy Grog Blend is no one-trick pony. It can make any multiple-rum cocktail more seaworthy. Try it in your own original creations, or even a straight pour on the rocks. Tasting Notes, Nose: Hamilton Navy Grog Blend is high ester, brown sugar and cooked fruit, complemented by hints of anise and a unique, funky organic note. Palate: On the palate, a fiery embrace of heavy caramel, setting the stage for a complex play of flavors. Brown sugar and anise from the nose find their counterparts in rich molasses, mango, and orange zest. A funky vegetal-mineral base adds depth, enhancing the blend's multifaceted character. Finish: The finish is marked by the emergence of charred oak notes, seamlessly weaving into the sweeter fruit tones. This balance leaves a lasting impression of the blend's alluring profile.
