Myers's Original Dark

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.

i have been drinking this rum with coke for 42 years, have been through the bacardes,capt morgans,etc.but have yet to find a better go to, down side the wife loves it to!! on occasion i pick up a bottle when in the US but here in canada ,meyers is blended with canadian & jamacian rums, go figure??

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

Caramel and burnt toffee nose and spicy,fiery finish.

This tastes like whisky and I hate whisky. I tried to drown the flavor with some orange drink, which I love mixing with Light out Gold Rum, but that just highlighted the smoky funk of this rum.

Follow the recipe on the back of the bottle to make the best colada's!

A normal dark rum, nothing special about the flavour and not really smooth enough to drink straight.

Neat.. Nope, but this stuff is excellent in a variety of Foofoo drinks. Good rum N coke too!

Obviously there is a reason why people drink so much Rum and Coke and the reason is that there are so many Rums that are made for it -like this one
