Black Tot works with the world's best distilleries to craft the finest rum blends, embracing the tradition of multi-country blending pioneered by the Royal Navy – a technique that gives its rums nuance and depth. Its name is also a nod to naval tradition, paying tribute to Black Tot Day (31st July 1970), when the Navy ended its centuries-old practice of handing out daily rum rations, or tots, to sailors.

Meanwhile, Black Tot's commitments to transparency, provenance and quality ensure that all components of its blends are entirely traceable, and the brand shares detailed breakdowns of its blend compositions.
