Captain Morgan Black Spiced

Poor taste and unnatural aroma. Just look on the color. Dye!
Is it rum?

Chutovo nevyrazny rum. Jedine co je citit je cukor :). Idealny rum pre nase polovicky.

Was interested in trying this when I first saw it released, but managed to find a good deal on a 1l bottle so thought I would grab it.

This is clearly a rum that has been made to compete with Kraken, lets not beat it round the bush. We get a decent dash of vanilla and various other spices. Though the finish doesn't last long, and doesn't quite seem as full bodied as it should especially considering its a little stronger.

Straight or mixed, it is just underwhelming, and while not at all bad, considering its pricing, its just not something that can be recommended over Kraken, and doesn't even compete with the King of Rums right now (Rumbullion). There will likely be people that find this rum very easy to consume, and may even prefer it over Kraken, I totally get that, and so in that instance, its worth trying, I just dont think its worth the price.

Other than it’s vanilla bean aroma which is pleasant, this Rum is way overrated. I don’t mind it as a mixer but that where I stop. A good or great Rum should only be judged drinking it neat . Captain Morgan spiced neat is a disaster but it can pass as a mixer

This was once my go-to rum when I didnt know any better and was only drinking Dark & Stormy's. Now that I'm all about sipping with my cigar, I cant even look at this bottle.

I would say this is a nice response to krackens success. Just as nice but with different undertones. Still tastes a bit cheap and strong but great for mixing. Nice with coke not great for sipping.

Quite good rum, but nothing special. Bit better than Morgan Spiced Gold. Little bit sweet and more vanilla and spices. I noticed some tones of cherry.

It's very blunt, even if it's ice cold it doesn't taste spiced at all. I mean it's drinkable but just not my favorite. Don't think I'm going to buy this one again.

Absolutely "okay". It's cheap and I'll give them that but it's not worth your time if you want to drink it as it is.
I would argue it tastes polluted and chemical. When I mixed it with regular coke I felt the strong taste of alcohol and strong flavours ruined the drink.

It seems like veryone wants to compare this one to kraken and I can understand that, I don't really have an argument for this one being worse other than that I enjoyed the kraken more. The taste felt more genuine I would describe it. And the kraken did better standalone (once more: IN MY OPINION).

Smells like rum with chocolate, and tastes syrupy sweet like chocolate with cherries. Not a sipper, but makes a decent twist on a rum & coke.
