Goslings Black Seal Bermuda Rum

Dark Rum | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750 mL | Bermuda

Process & Profile

Goslings Black Seal Bermuda Rum is Bermuda’s iconic dark rum, built around a rich, smooth profile that’s equally at home in classic mixed drinks and easy sipping pours. It’s crafted from a blend of pot still and continuous still rums and matured in oak, giving it that signature dark, warming character—sweet spice, caramelized sugar, and a round vanilla note that stays balanced rather than syrupy.

This is the rum most people reach for when they want an authentic Dark ’n Stormy style build, but it also works well in other rum staples where you want deeper color and flavor—Rum & Cola, a spiced rum punch, or a richer tiki base.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Butterscotch, vanilla, caramel, warm spice

• Palate: Molasses-like sweetness, toffee, toasted oak, gentle spice

• Finish: Smooth and warming with lingering caramel and spice

What Makes It Special

• Classic Bermuda dark rum profile with deep caramel and vanilla tones

• Bottled at 80 proof for a smooth, cocktail-friendly pour

• A go-to rum for Dark ’n Stormy-style drinks and other highball favorites

• Rich enough to taste in mixed drinks without overpowering the balance

• A reliable “house dark rum” for customers who want one versatile bottle

How to Enjoy

Serve it over ice with ginger beer and a lime wedge for a Dark ’n Stormy-style serve, or keep it simple with cola and fresh lime. It also works well in rum-forward cocktails where a darker, richer base helps—like a Rum Old Fashioned-style build or a deeper tiki mix.
