There are many ways to live your sailor life legally. But where the fun in that? The Black Market is one of the less respectable ways to obtain strong gear and cool cosmetics. And to get the currency for these special items, you need to do some risky tasks, some of them involving Gold Skull Rum.

You won’t just find Gold Skull Rum as is, but you have to make it yourself at the Distillery and then smuggle it to wherever the contract indicates. It’s the most precious form of alcohol you can get, so it’s worth taking the time to unlock.Here is how to obtain Gold Skull Rum in Skull and Bones.

To get Gold Skull Rum in Skull and Bones, you need to do some work at the Manufactory first. It’s a recipe that isn’t unlocked at the start since it’s an advanced recipe, so don’t fret if you can’t see it right away.

Here are the steps to follow to get Gold Skull Rum:

  • Complete the Taking the Helm quest to unlock the Black Market.
  • Work your way up Smuggling Operation Ranks.
  • Reach Rank Seven.
  • Head to the Helm menu.
  • Upgrade White Skull Rum to Gold Skull Rum.
Tip:

Take both smuggling and hunting missions to increase your Smuggling Operation Rank faster. There aren’t many different missions to choose from.

Smuggling Gold Skull Rum will reward you with more points to increase your Smuggling Operations Rank and get more Pieces of Eight to buy precious items at the Black Market. You can get strong ship weapon blueprints, some cool cosmetics, and more from Yanita.
