Product Description
Pusserā€™s ā€˜Gunpowder Proofā€™ is a traditional Royal Navy style rum produced at original Admiralty strength and in accordance with the Admiraltyā€™s blending recipe last used when the Royal Navy discontinued its daily ration on 31 July 1970.

Gunpowder Proof: Prior to the invention of the hydrometer, the Royal Navy shipā€™s ā€œPusserā€ shutdown claims of watering down sailorsā€™ daily tots by dousing a bit of gunpowder in the rum and attempting to light. If the mixture ignited, the rum was ā€œat proof.ā€ If it didnā€™t, the Pusser might find himself tossed to sea.
