Myers's Original Dark rum

Myers's Original Dark

RE
had this rum recently

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.

This rum goes well with coke. Its not really enjoyable just plain for sipping. Works good in mixed drinks.

I have been drinking this old standby mixer for 30 years. Whenever I want a very rich and dark molasses flavor that seldom offends, this one can be counted upon. Any time I don't want to figure out what to order at a bar, I just ask for Myers and Coke. If the bartender offers Pepsi instead, I gladly accept the upgrade. I never sip this one neat or on the rocks. It is also fairly cheap and very readily available anywhere. However, as for keeping this one in your cabinet, you would be better off using Pusser's 84 proof.

I like rum on the rocks, but this will be use on cold winter nights with my favorite hot buttered rum mix.

This is like cough syrup. It should only be used in home remedies or hot toddies.

Not drinkable at all. Not even in a Dark & Stormy. Might mess up a good ginger beer.

Great for mixing with coke or something else thats good with dark rum. Also pretty good in cocktails. Not smooth enough to drink straight.

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

Ever since I tried this rum, haven't wanted to try another brand. With a strong pungent sweet taste it goes well in coca cola.

Another juggernaut rum producer comparable to that of Bacardi. Quantity over quality for the most part. This rum is a standard staple for the college party crowd and also to those who do not know better as to the plethora of other available rums that far outweigh the taste, price and flavor of Myers dark.
Molasses based rum with oak hints with little complexity. This is a mixer and that is all it is!
