Captain Morgan Dark

Overall I felt this rum was simply okay. I mixed it with cola and for me I just found it to be too "strong" or "heavy". Maybe that's the essence of a dark rum, and for those who like dark rums, perhaps they might give this particular brand a better rating. For me, it was nothing special.

You can drink it, but if you have some variants- choose another rum

Cpt Morgan's was my introduction to rum and I spent many weekends sloshing an entire bottle straight. After more consideration towards my health, I found that its decent mixed, but can't escape that slight 'harsh alcohol' flavour. There is a nice dash of treacle and almost liquorice/ anise, but tends to be a little too much. Not bad if there is not alternative, but in this price range id rather choose lambs or OVD.

Hey captain! Instead of trying to figure out how many flavors you can come up with, why not just try to make one good one?

This seems to be the standard for bar stock in our area. If all else fails while watching the game a Captain & Coke is a nice refreshing drink. Not one of my favorite rums, but works just fine with coke and a lime.

Nothing about this rum excites me however does it do its job of being a mixer rum yes and is good with coke but rubbish straight up or rocks

Strong, a bit harsh but with a nice sweetness... I just can't really enjoy it straight, and for use in mixes there are simply better alternatives.

Perfectly acceptable dark rum for mixing but thats as far as it goes. Very sweet and has a bit of a bite. I can taste sugar , molasses and some spice. Not very good neat but pleasant enough with coke or ginger beer.

Like CM with Coke only.

Basic demerara & molasses rum flavor, sweet and sweeter with Coke. A bar-staple pretty much everywhere you go, this is what you're getting if you ask for a double dark & Coke. I speak from experience!
