Cruzan Gold

This rum is just amazing for what it is,
For once its very cheap I think its like 10$ a fifth here, compared to morgan which is 17-18$.
Is it an AMAZING RUM with SUPER complexity, no.
But its an AMAZING staple rum. It sits well in ALL mixed drinks, its not over powering in its flavor, however it stands out and is very palatable. Oaky flavor with a good bit of vanilla. If you are someone who likes simple and good rums this is a must and probably your only.
Notes (too long did not read)
-Smooth
-Simple (can be a minus or plus)
-GREAT MIXER
-Vanilla Oakish Flavour

this is a nice rum low cost great in mixes good for summer party's.

Good mixer

I saw it on the shelf for $12. Have mixed it with tonic. I experimented with a few other concoctions including grape juice, bitters, lemon. It make a nice rum and tonic. Drop in a bit of bitters for a nice cocktail. Not one to sip neat, but a terrific value.

Its fairly mellow, working great in mixed drinks. There is a nice sweet finish of molasses and vanilla. Also used this in an aged eggnog recipe with gosling's rum (as well as with whiskey and cognac) and the final product was superb.

I like the Cruzan family of rums. I keep a 1.75 of this one for company because everyone seems to enjoy it in a mixer.

A good rum for mixing. Not alot of flavors upfront, but still good. Price wise, cheaper than Mount Gay or Appleton reserve so its a really good value. Great for parties and open bars.

I was pleasantly suprised by this rum.

Low sweet level, good vanilla taste and caramel. I have the feeling they perfectly know how to deal with their alcohol level for this kind of rum.

Really like Cruzan 9, especially for the price. I was looking forward to trying a new Cruzan rum that I can sip on the rocks. Good aged rum for the price. Please note that this not a superior aged rum, but is good for those who like rum (on the rocks) while on a budget. As importantly, Cruzan 9 is not currently available in PA (11/2016).

Revised after trying more rums: Not a sipper but among my favorite mixers becuase it's flavorful and versatile for a reasonable price. Great in a rum Collins, with cola, fruit flavored sparking water (lemon/lime is best) or added to egg nog. My favorite is with tonic and a lime wedge.
