Aroma visualization from community tastings
Privateer Single Cask Rum Navy Yard
Coconut and vanilla drinkers who want some real oak behind the sweetness will click with this one. It's a young American pot-still rum at cask strength, heavy on coconut, caramel and toasted wood, with a small hint of glue on the nose. One taster called it "Foursquare squared"; a few felt the young oak leans a bit too dominant. Warm, spiced, a little hot.
The community says- Coconut and vanilla
- Real oak depth
- Young wood dominates

The look inside the bottle
How does Privateer Single Cask Rum Navy Yard taste?
Aggregated from 30 community reviews.
Coconut and oak-driven young cask-strength pot still Well-liked for its coconut-caramel-oak profile and surprising depth at only three years. The recurring gripe: the young wood can push a touch too hard, and it runs hot.

A Corsican nose that took me by surprise. Clearly coffee and spice on the palate, with good intensity and length. A little hot, but pleasantly so. A great discovery to share with friends around the barbecue.

Malý, hodně připsány dub, příjemně piti
Review by Simon Charbonnier
Impressive barrel influence and complexity for such a young rum.
Review by Florent Apl
Édit: I put this review under the wrong ref, here it is in the correct place. My first privateer. On the nose, I have coconut, wood and a very small hint of glue. On the mouth, it's coconut, fruity, sweet and a little spicy. You can feel the alcohol. The finale is rather short, it's kn the coconut and the caramel. In a blind test I might have gone for Belize, only the hint of glue on the nose would make me think otherwise. It's nice and pleasant but not groundbreaking.
Review by Chaos Tsume
Very nice, with a lovely long finish, a powerful ester during the tasting, like all good Jamaicans, and a distinct chocolate taste that makes it accessible. A must-have in your cellar!
