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.

THE very best for Cuba Libre, with excellent molasses sweetness. A must for Cuba Libre lovers!

but it does make a passable dark and stormy. You get what you pay for, if your only going to mix rum then this crap isn't such a bad way to go. If I can't sip it I'm not a fan. Reserve this for your timid fruit drink friends.

In Vietnam (of all places). It was hot and very humid. A beer went hot before it could be consumed, but one of these on ice surprisingly eased the discomfort of the humidity and heat. Sipping it slowly over ice, the heat and the humidity, no longer seemed too much to bear. In fact, all seemed to be as it should.
On a recent trip to Hong Kong, I found it very cheaply, in a Local neighbourhood grocery store. Bargin! and once more the heat and humidity seemed to be less uncomfortable with a Myers on the rocks.

There is nothing really wrong with this except the flowery after taste. Nice molasses taste and a bit of a gentle burn , reminds me of Black Heart navy rum. Would make a good mixer im sure.

I remember when this was one of the more exotic rums that were available. At the time I liked it pretty well with coke, but I sure am glad things progressed

really great for a hearty rum and coke but less is more when mixing this otherwise it turns to a glass of syrup real quick

Myers's Original Dark Rum van Jamaica is een prima dark rum voor in cocktails met die typische Jamaicaanse funk. Lekker.

I'm not quite sure why every restaurant or bar stocks this as a "good dark rum" when requested for my drink. My guess would be price only because it would not make it as a "top shelf" rum on taste alone. Very overpowering taste, to me it leaves a bad aftertaste if done straight up and only works in overly sweet mixes like Pina Coladas. I drink only when it's all they have. Never buy it for my shelf.

It's the cornerstone of dark mixing rums. Enough said.
