should state first that in general i'm not a fan of spiced rum. However was offered the drink and said thank you. When offered another later, I politely declined.
For the price, I even take it out of the cabinet for a sip sometimes. I know it's meant more for cocktails, but I like the nutty aroma and (to me not overly eager) sweetness. That is a fair rum, and in my opinion, a sipper.

Rum ki je dober samo za rum-kolo. Ima okus po cenenem žganju.
Good choice for a mixer. I know people who drink this neat.

Mal som tento drink v bare baron. Ked som sa spytal, ci tu maju iny rum ako ten kapitan, na kery sa divam, barman sklaman oznamil ze ne.
Tak sme to s kamosom riskli...
Uff...je to cosi co keby popise zlozeni ako voda, lieh, cukor.. tak to vezmeme.
Ma to nejaku aromu, ktora sa tvari ako korenisty rum, ale inak je to proste ovonany lieh. Uff je slabe slovo.
Ak to risknes ako sipper, tak ta to rozkope jak zahradku aj s mrkvickama...
Not really good, but good enough for coctails and partys.

Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold 35% (Jamaica)
Eye: Gold
Nose: Pretty forward smell of hard lemon drops, public toilet, industrial soap, faint vanilla, over ripe fermented honey dew melon and something like sour star fruit. Very light and thin impression. It also reeks of old fridge-damaged vegetables. There is also something that has a slight resemblance of light, cheap chocolate.
Mouth: Sugar and diluted eau-de-vie with a twist of lemon and artificial vanilla sugar. It is thin and unrefined with no trace of self-worth or dignity. This is the captain of a sinking ship in lukewarm salty water. For a second I thought I sensed cinnamon but that could be wishful thinking.
Reaction: I have had this in coke with ice before and have enjoyed hundreds of them. Now I wonder why? Well, I was young and stupid - just like this beverage right here. Maybe it is unfair to taste it as a sipping rum but at the same time, and in all fairness, a drink should be able to stand on its own I think. How else can I compare? Well, this may be the last I see of this horrible rum-like booze.
