Captain Morgan Dark

How much do I not like this! Not going to pull any punches here, it’s vile! It smells disgusting and tastes even worse. Not even using loads of Coca-Cola as a mixer can save this rum and make it anywhere near enjoyable. But in my opinion, Captain Morgan as a brand, has a much bigger problem to deal with, than just this particular rum. With the explosion in popularity of rum, especially spiced and flavoured ones, small independent rum distilleries are popping up left right and centre, creating brand new and exciting flavoured rums that are on another level to anything that Captain Morgan has, or is currently producing. And because of these funky up and coming rum distilleries, offering us the consumer the opportunity to be a part of this rum revolution, they are making Captain Morgan rums look ordinary, bland and outdated by about 20 years.

Liked it even less than Morgan's spiced, but i used to drink that stuff many years ago. Wouldn't bother, ever again.

I bought a bottle of this after I threw away my 2nd empty bottle of CM Spiced gold. Mixed it (not drowning it) with cola and lime, and with ginger beer and lime to test it out.
Definently tasted better with the ginger beer than cola.
Thought it would taste better than the spiced gold, but it didn't

I'm not a Dark rum lover, but this one stole my hart. Great smell and good taste. For me better then famous Kraken

This actually tastes like an aged rum. Best capt morgan so far. Stillnot really my taste. Has a pot still taste to it.

Soft Rum, só light, so Soft, so a Rum, not my Favorit

My local bar has it and I try it from time to time. It's not my favourite but I don't find it that terrible

cheap supermarket rum, chemical sweet taste, don’t like drinking it
i use it for cooking or for cocktails

Better than spiced. More taste to it but same as spiced in the sense it is what it is.

I have owned several bottles of dark Morgan over the years.

The first time when I was 17. The girl I was in love with then was hosting a pirate-party. Her older sister offered to buy some rum, and she game back with this. We mixed it with Pepsi, and 13 years later im not able to drink Pepsi.

Will edit later.

My dad once told me about a time in 82 when there was a strike blocking spirit-deliveries for 15 weeks. He and some buddies went to 6 different bars and the only booze anyone had left was a bottle of Morgan. When he woke up the next Morning, he knew what killed Bob Marley (his words).

TLDR: Not for drinking neat. Will ruin most drinks. Get something else.

Note: I have yet found a rum I like that is this dark. Maybe it's just not for my pallette?
