Product Description

Gosling's Spirited Seas Ocean Aged Rum

Gosling's Spirited Seas Ocean Aged Rum brings Bermuda rum and Atlantic maturation together in a distinctive limited-edition bottle. Gosling's fills vintage bourbon barrels with a blend of aged dark Bermuda rum, then sends the casks on a year-long voyage between Bermuda and the Mid-Atlantic. Constant movement increases the rum's contact with charred American white oak, building a layered profile for drinkers seeking an unusual aged rum with a genuine maritime story.

• A blend of premium aged dark Bermuda rum
• Finished for one additional year in vintage bourbon barrels at sea
• Ocean movement encourages continuous interaction between rum and oak
• A characterful choice for sipping, gifting, or a rum-forward Old Fashioned

Tasting Notes

Palate: Stone fruit, caramel apple, salted dark chocolate, and warming spice.

Finish: Smooth, clean, and lingering, with spiced dark oak.

Food Pairings

Pair it with dark chocolate, caramelized pineapple, grilled pork, barbecue, or a mature hard cheese. Its oak and salted-caramel character also works well alongside pecan or apple desserts.
