An unsweetened navy strength American rum from Privateer, a single cask of molasses spirit bottled at 56.4%, sweet but natural with coconut, burnt sugar and milk chocolate on the nose over caramel, brown sugar and vanilla, finishing on young wood.
Description
Privateer is a Massachusetts distillery with a strong reputation among American rum drinkers, and this Navy Yard is a single cask bottled at navy strength, 56.4%, from a molasses base and declared unsweetened. The comparison many reach for is Foursquare, and it earns it: a clean, well made rum with natural sweetness rather than added sugar.
The nose is led by burnt sugar and coconut with milk chocolate and a touch of young wood, surprisingly mild for the proof, while the palate brings caramel, coconut, brown sugar and vanilla with hints of chocolate. The finish stays sweet with vanilla over young, still vibrant oak that reveals the spirit's relative youth. A characterful, honest cask strength American rum that sips well neat, it suits drinkers who enjoy a Foursquare like profile of natural sweetness, coconut and caramel without dosage.
