July 13th 2019 at Central City pub in Surrey. A warm, potent, slightly sharp caramel nose. Warm and potent on the palate as well. A sharp but not unpleasant aftertaste on the tongue. Any sipping must be incremental, a few drops at a time, else big throat burn. Not bad at all for what it is.
About this bottle
With a brand history dating back to 1849, Lamb’s Navy Rum is a well-known commodity in the U.K. Per the company’s site, it’s a blend of eighteen different Caribbean rums from Barbados, Jamaica, Trinidad, and Guyana, playing off the same British naval tradition as Pusser’s rum. In addition to the 151 proof edition reviewed here, Lamb’s offers an 80 proof variation, as well as a spiced version. While Lamb’s doesn’t have U.S. distribution at the time of this writing, it’s also bottled in Canada and is readily available at duty free shops on the U.S./Canada border in an unusual 1.14 liter hexagonal shaped bottle.
