Captain Morgan Spiced Rum is made by combining yeasts, molasses, water and mash, which are then distilled in a continuous still. The rum is aged for up to 1 year followed by the addition of spices and flavors indigenous to the Caribbean Islands.
Captain Morgan Spiced is owned by Diageo and produced in Puerto Rico by the famous Destilieria Serralles, Inc. The company Captain Morgan is named after the 17th-century Welsh privateer of the Caribbean, Sir Henry Morgan was an admiral in the Royal British Navy who earned a knighthood in 1674.

The rum is interested, but don't like this variant
I avoid smelling the bottle because it reminds me the worst hangover I had.
Great party ingredients indeed
Everyone's first rum and very 'run of the mill' nothing special but doesn't do anything wrong, or anything particularly right either. Wouldn't say no to a gifted bottle but I can always find a preferred one if I'm paying. I've had worse.

This was not only my first rum, but my first drink ever. It provided me with a great segway to other, better rums. While I now realize that this rum has far too much vanilla, it is still one of my favorites.

If you drink this straight you need help. None of the flavors come through straight. It tastes like a trash can smells unless mixed.
Many will say it's cheap but to me it's the best dark rum ever. So much flavor and smooth taste

Captain and Coke? Sure! That’s about it though. Ginger ale maybe...

Think people can be a bit snobby about this due to the name on the label. It is a fair rum without knocking your socks off, particularly given its price. It is more for mixing but does that job well.
Nothing special but far way from being the worst spiced rum on the market.

It’s been years since I’ve had the Original Captain Spiced and it’s actually better than I remembered. Of course I always drank it in coke at a bar, but it’s ok on its own. The nose has some caramel, Vanilla, and a hint of spice. The mouth is a mix between spice and sweet with vanilla dried fruits and caramel. Some say it will do in a pinch, I say it will do anytime. It’s not a high priced Rum, I’ve had others in this range that were better, but it’s not bad and you drink what you like.

Not a bad rum but nothing special. Only to be used as a mixer.

I have refused to go back more than 30 years to the Captain, but I figured that I now needed to find out just how bad this stuff is compared to all of the other rums that I have rated. I picked up a very small bottle of this at a gas station.
It is surprisingly smooth and I have had a lot worse. However, it does not even taste like rum, but more like thin snow ball syrup. It only has 14 gpl of added sugar, which qualifies it as being semi-dry. I only taste vanilla and caramel, with no wood or tropical spices.
So for those of you who secretly hate rum and like this one, keep the Captain's distiller happy. I surely won't.
As an after note, this was not released to the USA until a few months after I graduated from college in December of 1983. So what did we do on weekends in college before The Captain? It was really quite simple back then. We would have a keg of beer every Friday and then play tackle football with no equipment and beat the living crap out of each other. Blame those tough professors for this insane behaviors that makes The Captain drunks seem pale in comparison!
The bottom line is that is this some awful shit that can only be tamed by about twice as much cola being added to it. And it is not even the worse rum that I have tried!!! Shudder in fear!
