Product description
The Pusser's brand is strongly associated with British sailing traditions.
Traditionally, each sailor on Royal Navy ships received a daily ration of rum, rationed by the ship's Purser (which the sailors changed to Pusser). Pusser's Rum Ltd. was founded almost a decade after the Royal Navy abandoned this noble custom on July 31, 1970. The inconsolable sailors named it Black Tot Day. It took until 1979 for them to be able to relive the good old days - thanks to Pusser's Rum Ltd. To start, five different rums from the West Indies (or Caribbean) were blended using the original Royal Navy recipe.
Pusser's Gunpowder Proof is a rum prepared to the recipe used by the Admiralty until the Royal Navy stopped issuing daily rum rations to sailors on 31st July 1970. Bottled at traditional Royal Navy rum strength.
