Captain Morgan 100

A very fine spiced rum with great spices that are typical for Caribbean rums. The proof makes this a winner especially with coke

This is a good pick for me when I only have enough room for whats in my flask and I need a hefty punch with limited quantity. For 100proof, it mixes well... and the extra hooch gives it enough kick to make it worth it. Its pretty terrible by itself though, but it can rate high if you use it correctly.

First taste… WOW! That will wake you up. At 100 proof it can also put you down in a hurry. There is no hiding that strength. No Captain Morgan rum has ever been accused of being shy. There is some burn of course, but much less than many weaker rums i have tried. Captain Morgan 100 proof reminds me of drinking vanilla extract. There’s a little more going on of course. But Captain Morgan is a simple drink. Even with the burn I wouldn’t call this rum rough at all though. It doesn’t smack your face like Captain Morgan Black Spiced does. Oh you do know this alcohol, no doubt about it. More importantly with all that sweet vanilla you know you are drinking RUM. After getting Captain Morgan Black Cask nice and chilled it was actually a very pleasant sipper. I had it nice and neat in a little glass jar. No ice, no water. There was no bitter aftertaste in the finish whatsoever. The finish is short and dry but that’s not really a bad thing. This Captain Morgan doesn’t linger on the tongue except for a mild vanilla aftertaste. Mixed with diet cola it was pretty much Vanilla Coke with some punch…and kick… Really though, i preferred it straight up.
I can’t see any reason to bother with the 70 proof version other than just to compare the two. This is a good rum. Is it a delciate balance of fine aged rum and spices? NO! What is it then? Captain Morgan Spiced 100 Proof is smooth, tasty, and STRONG. It’s a simple and uncomplicated high proof rum. This makes it fun and easy to drink, which is probably why the brand is so popular. I find this rum to be a perfectly acceptable sipper. There are better sippers for sure, but don’t underestimate this one. On top of that Captain Morgan Black Cask Spiced 100 mixes wonderfully in cola and tea. The tea was an accident, but a happy accident indeed.
The Captain has earned his spot in the marketplace by being accessible and consistent. Introducing a smooth more potent big brother to the classic is a huge step in the right direction! Captain Morgan Black Cask 100 Proof Rum will always have a home in my liquor cabinet.

This is one of my favorite spiced rums. I'd drink more of it if it wasn't 50%! Best served mixed, on any of your regular mixed drinks. Goes very well in a hurricane.

This is my go to higher proof rum. Lets the glasses flow with 100proof goodness. It slides back easier than its lower proof brother, but packs much more of a punch. Always fun to stand up after a few and really take note of the 100 proof as it smacks you like a scorned ex.

A good classic go-to rum for a drink after work. A decent rum to sip, and a good mixer with cola

Is great with some ice and coke, serve this to your guests and everybody is happy!

If you're looking for captain morgan taste but stronger, this is for you. Same taste, just a bit more harsh.

An ok room for mixing, but pure not good. the price is fine, and work well for assorted drinks.

especially double up with coke it taste good.

I like this spiced rum. I like it mixed and on the ice. TO me this is the base line to measure others against :)
