The aim of the Black Tot Master Blender's Reserve 2023 is to be closer to the original Navy Blend, with a more intense mouthfeel and rich notes of wood smoke, espresso and cocoa. To achieve this, Elixir Master Blender Oliver Chilton combined part of the Master Blender's Reserve from the previous year, which as always consists partly of the original Navy Rum, with up to 31-year-old (Wooden) Pot and Column Still Rums from five different countries: Guyana (31.5%), Barbados (18.3%), Jamaica (9%), Trinidad (19%) and Grenada (2.7%).
