NEW - Mount Gay Eclipse Navy Strength

Navy Strength is a historical term that dates back to the time when sailors travelled the world's oceans with large quantities of rum in their luggage. In rough seas, it was not uncommon for this to run out. In the days of cannonballs, wet gunpowder that failed to ignite would have been a death sentence. However, the sailors realised that the gunpowder would still ignite if the strength of the rum was high enough: this is why only high-proof rum was carried on the ships. The Navy Strength used in the USA was 57.1 %.
Eclipse Navy Strength offers a strong and aromatic flavour. It is matured for between 2 and 4 years and contains a higher proportion of older pot still rums than the traditional Eclipse. This preserves the balance and elegance of the flavour profile. 
With notes of roasted pineapple, vanilla and mocha, it is delicious in a Navy Paloma with grapefruit soda, in a Navy Punch or in a Fresh Coco Mojito.
