Black Tot Rum – A tribute to the seafaring tradition

The story of Black Tot – The Navy’s last drink

The name "Black Tot" dates back to 31 July 1970, when the British Royal Navy issued the last official "Tot" of Black Tot Rum to its sailors. This day became known as "Black Tot Day" and marked the end of a tradition dating back over 300 years. Black Tot Rum was created to preserve the legacy of this tradition and to maintain the distinctive taste of Navy rum for future generations.

Black Tot Rum pays homage to the centuries-old practice of rum rations in the Navy and represents the authentic flavour of the rum enjoyed on board ships. Today, Black Tot Rum is synonymous with quality and history, offering a unique rum experience that respects the tradition and craftsmanship of the past.

The production of Black Tot Rum – tradition meets craftsmanship

Black Tot Rum is produced using traditional methods that have been employed in rum production for centuries. The rums used in Black Tot come from some of the finest distilleries in the Caribbean and are carefully selected to preserve the rich aroma and complex flavour of navy rum.

After distillation, the rums are matured in oak casks, which gives them their characteristic depth and full-bodied flavour. The final blend takes place in the UK, where the rum is fine-tuned to achieve its perfect balance and distinctive flavour profile.
