Myer’s Original Dark Rum is a blend of up to nine different rums of various ages, all of which are distilled using Jamaica's typical production method: pot-stills. The Original Dark Rum is slightly unique in Jamaica however, because some of the molasses used earlier in the process is added back in after distillation.
Myers rum has been produced since 1879 and named after its founder, Fred Myers.

Note: I'm a sipper. My opinion is based on sipping characteristics.
This tastes so bad, it is only fit for chumps who drink Jägermeister. Since I am not that type of person, the bottle went straight down the sink after first two sips.
This is the most gawd-awful substance to ever assail my palette. Other reviewers led me to believe I was in for a treat. This nasty liquor tastes like burnt wood! I'll stick with Flor de Caña
This is not a straight sipper. Fantastic for mixing in your favorite rum based cocktails, but lacking in enough complexity to stand solo. Which is fine! Different spirits play different rolls. Hell, this would be great in a split base tropical drink such as a painkiller with some Smith and Cross. Must have for your at home bar if not for versatility alone.
Intensiver, süßlicher und fruchtiger Duft, typisch jamaikanisch.
Kann geschmacklich pur nicht mit der Nase mithalten. Staubtrocken. Zuweilen alkoholisch.
Ein starker Kontrast zu dem was man sich erwartet/erhofft hätte.
Zum Mischen jedoch perfekt geeignet, vor allem um süßlich-fruchtig-würzige Drinks mit geschmacklich dominanten Zutaten aufzuwerten, denen es in der Nase fehlt.
Dann erhält man eine Explosion an Aromen.
No longer a standard in all grocery liquor departments apparently. Should be, though. A fine enough Jamaican rum. Not strong funk on the nose but plenty on the palate. When all else fails, 4 ounces of pineapple juice and 2 of Fred’s elixir, and life is good. Let’s all drink to Fred Myers. He deserves it.
For a reasonably priced rum with a touch of that lovely Jamaican funk, Myers can't be beat.
Nose is mild, moderately redolant of overripe fruit and molasses. Not a lot of alcohol whiff. On the palate, it's surprisingly smooth, lightly sweet, and there's a lack of harshness that is pretty remarkable for this price tier (and for such a ubiquitous rum).
That said, it's not the beautiful sipping pot of Haut gout that other Jamaicans are. Still, if I lost my job and were on a budget...bingo!
I bought mine in a plastic bottle and I'm not sure if that was the problem, but it tasted off when sipped straight. That being said, off your making a mai-tai this is the rum
Perfect nose, tastes OK. Highly recommended for mix.
The rum is 50% inviting and 50% telling you to watch out!.
"Initially it is all caramel and burnt toffee almost like black treacle. As the aroma develops that rich Jamaican aroma also makes an entrance amongst the dense treacle."

Love it for Drinking and Cooking. Fried banana with Orange Juice and Myers reduction is my favorite ice cream topping.
