A bottle of Black Tot Navy Rum. Bottled from the Last Consignment of stock of Royal Naval Rum, which had been hidden in storage since Black Tot Day in 1970 - the day that the 300-year-old tradition of serving a daily ration of rum to naval crew ended - Black Tot is a real piece of rum (and naval) history.
This bottle is presented in a wooden case with a copper measure and stopper, as well as a small book about the history of rum in the Royal Navy.
