Old J Spiced rum

Old J Spiced

United Kingdom | Spiced

Old J Spiced rum is made from British Virgin Islands pot stilled rum that is blended with spices, vanilla and lime. The Old J rum company was founded in honor of Admiral Edward Vernon, who in 1740 enforced a reduction in the strength of the British Navy’s rum ration and suggested using limes and sugar to make the drink more enjoyable.

I enjoyed, even though it is not your regular rum taste. Very sweet and with some lime tones. It is also quite light so could be more pleasant for some who need an entry level drink.

Easily one of my favourite rums! Smooth & strong vanilla cut through with an undertone of lime! Easy drinking over ice of with cola!

This rum is meant for mixing and not to be sipped. Good for a rum and cola.

I absolutely love this. For me it’s Utopia in a bottle, because it’s so deliciously sweet. Some may argue too sweet, but not for me. I say the sweeter the better! Because of the vanilla, the smell of this rum alone is worth the Β£18 that I paid for it. And at only 35% VOL, neat with ice, this rum glides down the throat with silky smoothness and more importantly, without the burning sensation that sometimes follows with other rums. For me however, I love this rum even more with Coca-Cola as a mixer, because then the vanilla flavouring, intensifies, making this rum even more of a sugary delight.

Amazing taste with or without mixer. Smooth and so easy to drink

It smells much nicer than it tastes, it has a very strong artificial taste that I struggled to identify but have tasted in other flavoured spirits before. Would probably be okay in a mixed drink but on its own it was barely drinkable, cannot recommend.

Definable spiced offering. Very sweet so won't appeal to non-spiced addicts

Better than those mass produced spiced rums. But not notable. At a pub in Grantham UK. They offer the full line of Old J. More reviews to follow.
