Mount Gay - Eclipse Navy Strength Rum (700ml)
Eclipse Navy Strength

Navy Strength History
Navy Strength rum is a historical term dating back to the years when boats would carry large quantities of rum. In the days of cannonball battles, wet gunpowder that would not light would be a death sentence in battle. However, sailors realized if the rum was high enough strength and spilled, the gunpowder would still light and be used, and so this was what was carried on ships, and the term has remained. The historic Navy Strength used in the US was 57.1% abv, and that is the reference Trudiann chose for her Eclipse Navy Strength blend.
