Privateer is the poster child for the American rum resurgence — Malt Review's phrase — and Navy Yard is the bottle that made the rum world take Massachusetts seriously. Andrew Cabot walked away from a tech CEO job in 2008 to revive the New England rum tradition of his ancestor, an 18th-century privateer and distiller of the same name, opening in Ipswich in 2011; Maggie Campbell, who trained at the Germain-Robin brandy house, took over as head distiller and built a reputation that put her name alongside Richard Seale and Luca Gargano, making Privateer the first American rum in the Habitation Velier series. Navy Yard is 100% Grade A molasses, fermented and double-distilled, aged in full-size new American oak, and bottled at barrel proof from a single cask — typically around 57%, no sugar, color, or additives — so every bottle differs; check your label for the barrel number. Malt Review called it amazing under $50 and said who cares about the age. Got Rum? wholeheartedly recommends it neat, praising a culture of integrity and transparency where you can look up your barrel's history. Rum Ratings' drinkers call it Foursquare-like but richer and smoother, molasses, vanilla, banana, and pepper, gliding down even at 113 proof — among the best rums from the USA. Honest note: it's barrel proof and new-oak forward, hot neat until water brings it into focus. For a Dark 'n' Stormy with backbone, a Rum Old Fashioned, or neat with a drop of water.
