Cockspur 5 Star Fine

Not a sipper but it's very cheap. In the uk its about 14.00 better choice than Sailor Jerry and Captain Morgan.
Mixed into a cocktail you will be happy.
It will do, it is not sweet, it is dry if that is your bag keep this in stock.

a pleasant rum for mixing with coke and a slice of lime.

Looks very cheap and can be found in most supermarkets so I've avoided this rum but finally tried it recently and its really not that bad. Not too much flavour but relatively smooth.

I sampled this rum on the rocks, but then had the bar-tendress add a splash of cola to finish it. Good, straight-up, nicely-colored rum...but just not up to sipping standards. Showed well with the cola, though, so if you like a Rum&Coke as your mainstay, please try this.

at a relatively inexpensive price this has little competition

Not too bad with cola. Visited the distillery in Barbados. More beach club than anything.

for mixed drinks or rum cola

Not gonna say its great, or that you get a complexity of flavours but if youve got around a tenner in your pocket and want a rum and coke when you get home, its your boy!
