About Black Tot Rum
On 31st July 1970, the last rum rations were issued aboard the British Royal Navy ships – a day forever known as Black Tot Day.
Black Tot Rum was first created in 2010 by Sukhinder Singh (Elixir Distillers) with Last Consignment - a rare and unique bottling of the Navy Rum flagons from 1970.
Since then, Black Tot Rum have created their own award-winning signature blends, including Black Tot Finest Caribbean and their limited edition Master Blender’s Reserve, which pays homage to Navy blending tradition with an added emphasis on blend transparency.
Black Tot Finest Caribbean & Master Blender’s Reserve 2022 were both awarded ‘Master Awards’ in their respective categories in the Spirits Business Rum & Cachaça Masters 2023.
