Honestly, this rum achieves what it was intended to do-- be a better version of regular Captain Morgan, while still being accessible to the Captain audience.
It's a solid enough rum to drink by itself, if that's your style. The spices make it pretty easy to stomach, though they don't give it the more mature flavors of an aged rum. Over ice, there's certainly nothing wrong with the rum.
Likewise, it's not a rum that's so special that you'll consider it to be unmixable. Rather, this rum is a great choice for mixed drinks. I preferred it in coke over a dark and stormy, but it was quite good in both, and I certainly didn't feel guilty about enjoying it in any other way than it's purest form.
For the price point, you can do better, and you can definitely do worse. As long as you don't go into this rum expecting something that it's not, you won't be disappointed.
My favorite rum to mix with coke. Very smooth and easy to drink.
After reading other reviews, I thought this would be better than Bacardi Ocho for sipping. This is totally disappointing for sipping! The Bacardi Ocho seems like a perfect 10 compared to this. The flavorings are overpowering. No smoothness at all. Each sip has a bite that makes me want to spit it out. Mixing it with my tea made it drinkable. Not worth the $22 I paid for it.
I know taste is very subjective. Kinda wondering how it got great reviews from many people. Maybe I’m just new to sipping my drinks.
Brought back from Cuba one time and wasn't disappointed.

Smooth a flavorful, mixes or straight on the rocks
Great Rum, spicy and mild. Delicious on the rocks!!!
This was drinkable and found in most stores but I wouldn't use it to try and make any impressions on anyone. It was acceptable, but I found it rather pedestrian and commonplace.

I was hoping for a Puerto Rican rum to mix Zombies with but this unpalatably sweet and spiced rum is not fit for drinking.

Beru ho jako startovacà rum pro porovnávánÃ. DobÅ™e pitelný na vÃkendové akce.
After trying many types of CM-rum, I think this is the best. It’s one of my favourites, but not the all time best rum that I have tasted.

A cut above the Captain's Original Spice. It still has a bit of sweetness, but someone with a sweet-tooth like mine could even make it a sipper in a pinch. Delicious in a pina colada.
