Myers's Original Dark rum

Myers's Original Dark

Jamaica | Dark | 40% ABV

Myerโ€™s Original Dark Rum is a blend of up to nine different rums of various ages, all of which are distilled using Jamaica's typical production method: pot-stills. The Original Dark Rum is slightly unique in Jamaica however, because some of the molasses used earlier in the process is added back in after distillation.

Myers rum has been produced since 1879 and named after its founder, Fred Myers.

Among all the work-a-day rums at the grocery store, I have selected this as the one I keep around for simple weeknight relaxation. Its sweet and tastes of molasses, its not anything special, but instead for me is the basic rum from which I compare others.

Love this stuff. Good strong Jamaican rum right here. Mixes well like everyone else has already said. A bit bitter.

This rum does not taste like any other rum. I like it particularly right after a hot afternoon adventure. Their unique flavor has really grown on me and I prefer it over mass production brands.

This is a great mixer rum, especially with Coca cola. I go to this as a Sunday evening relaxer.

Myers is a good all around Rum. You can do anything with it. Sip it, mix it, blender it with some Coco Lopez and pineapple juice, or as a Floater on top of your favorite cocktail. Are there better Rums? Of Course! That's why we love this website!!! But for a good go to Rum, Myers is hard to beat.

Rauchig, schmeckt nach Whisky. Smoky, tastes like Whisky... I like it

This is some pretty dark stuff. It definitely has a molasses smell and taste without the sweetness. It mixes well with juice, and cola, though I haven't tried it with ginger beer. Definitely a mixer, but an interesting one

If you're into making tiki drinks at home as much as I am, then you'll pretty much always have a bottle of this stuff around. Great dark rum for mixing. A nice amount of funk, spice, and sweetness. About as good a bottle of $20 rum there is for my money.
