Nose: Look for honeyed stone fruit in the nose followed by smoky hints of caramelized fruit..
Palate: The first taste reveals smoky cedar, dark fruit, spice and more smoky fruit flavors.
Finish: Long and warming. A long finish with a brine note underlying the smoky wood finish.
The starting point was the 60/40 blend of Guyana and Jamaican rums that are the keys to Hamilton Navy Strength. The goal was a bottled rum at a lower proof that would be more consumer friendly. As much as bartenders and many consumers love higher proof spirits, when you're dealing with blends higher than 100 proof it can be difficult to maintain consistency in the glass as dilution is critical. After diluting the Navy Strength Blend down to 84 proof the producer found that 60/40 was a bit heavy with the Jamaican rum on the palate. After more tests at varying proportions and at 80 , 82 and 84 proof the blend was finalized. High proof Jamaican and Guyana aged rums are blended together and slowly stirred for 48 hours before dilution to 84 proof with filtered well water at the Five & 20 Distillery in Westfield, NY.
Main Ingredient: Sugarcane molasses
Country of Origin: Guyana and Jamaica
