Woods Old Navy Rum, 70 cl

Product Information

Wood's Navy Rum is a traditional British naval style rum, still bottled at 57% and made to the original navy recipe from 1887. Navy rum—traditionally, a rum blend featuring rums from Guyana, Jamaica, Barbados, and Trinidad—was once given to sailors by the Royal British Navy as daily rations or “tots”. A small plus is the packaging, that pop as you draw the cork adds to the taste buds anticipation of a tot or two.

The spirit is made from Demerara molasses and contains three different rums, all distilled at the Diamond Distillery in Guyana, South America, before being shipped to the UK.
