Pusser's Gunpowder Proof and Aged 15 Years Take Home Gold at Meininger's ISW Awards
Pusser’s Rum is on the brink of recording a record-breaking year for 2021! The Brand received multiple awards from industry experts, including the panel of judges from Meininger’s International Spirit Awards.
Pusser’s kicked off July 2021 strong by winning two Gold Medals in Meininger’s annual ISW awards. Its Gunpowder Proof blend double medaled in the Dark Rum category, while its limited production 15-year-old rum was a winner in the Aged Dark Rum category. The Gold Medals represent best in class among all
competitors in a particular category.
Pusser’s also triumphed with a special award, “Best Dark Rum of the
Year” where the Gunpowder Proof blend was awarded best dark rum
out of all categories. Gunpowder Proof is a 54.5% ABV version of its
Admiralty blend, which is bottled at its original proof for the European
market. 15-years-aged is a 40% ABV long-aged rum that Forbes magazine called the “Single Malt of Rum.” Pusser’s True-Aged 15-Year Rum is crafted in small batches. It is a superb, coveted, and limited 15-year aged rum that continues to win awards and accolades amongst peers.
In acknowledging the awards, Company President and CEO, Gary Rogalski, commented, “Pusser’s Rum is riding the wave of hand-crafted artisanal spirits that are all natural and authentic. The vintage Port Mourant double wooden pot still located in the Demerara River valley of Guyana has been a major contributor to the Royal Navy Admiralty blend since the early 1700s and continues to add an element of natural flavor unsurpassed by any other rum.”
