Pussers Rum (75cl, 42%)

Pussers is the Original Navy Rum, tied to the daily ration, or tot, that sailors of Britain's Royal Navy were issued by the ship's purser for more than 300 years. Until 1740 that ration was a pint a day, taken neat. It is produced to the Admiralty's specifications, with no flavouring agents, and is predominantly pot-stilled, a method comparable to that used for single malt Scotch. This older expression is a 75cl bottle at 42% alcohol, and is best drunk neat or on the rocks, or mixed in a Caribbean recipe such as the Pussers Painkiller.
