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.

Until going to Cornwall, I've never heard of the Old J brand, so it was a must try. Not disappointed, and tried a few of their others, and actually bought a bottle of the Tiki Fire.
This is a really nice spiced rum, and could well be my next purchase. Recommend this one πŸ‘

Lovely rum, nice smooth vanilla smell and taste. Can definitely taste the Persian limes. Smashing.

Vanilla is way too overpowering and not at all subtle and that's coming from someone who enjoys the vanilla taste of rums. Even when mixed with coke this problem isn't masked.

Tasted this rum with ginger beer in a Cuban night club last night. I'll have to buy a bottle to see how it really goes down. Further updates to follow.

This is very sweet! It's also cheap so it's a good first timers rum. U could drink it on its own but for me a little too sweet and overpowering on the vanilla
Ok rum easy to drink

Really tasty gold spiced rum with beautiful notes of Persian lime and vanilla.. for mixing and cocktail it just works so well it's become what I reach for in that category

Interesting spiced spirit, but not really a rum at all. I mean, technically it isn't a rum anyway, as the manufacturers themselves state (its ABV is under 37.5% so it apparently doesn't qualify as being a "rum"). But anyway, it just tastes like a very sweet spirit, with some interesting vanilla and spices, but the toffee flavour is so overpowering.

Mainly vanilla and some spices (which I can't really distinguish). Overall target market is the Rum is Fun which they are doing very well in.

Good god , from the moment you unscrew the cheap cap artificial vanilla smacks you in the face !! Its overpowering.. neat or mixed you know what the taste is gonna be before you get it to your lips.
Rum flavoured vanilla would be about right.
Then on top of the vanilla bomb comes artificial limes , it all ends up as a sickly toffee drink... It was cheap so no real surprise ! All the people that have given this high ratings haven't tried enough good stuff imho.
