Myers's Original Dark

A flavor mix of molasses and toasted oak, pretty dry and soft.

Great for making Old Fashioned. But a bit to harsh for use as a sipping rum.

Basic, nothing to make it stand out. Another one that is acceptable given lack of better options.

Great for piña colada’s. Nice dark molasses flavor. Heavy on the pallet in an enjoyable way. Not too sweet

Very sharp rum with a strong alcoholic taste on the nose and a nasty aftertaste. There are better dark rums. Not a good one to enjoy as neat drink.

Heavy molasses and burnt caramel in smell and taste, which are accompanied by a pleasant Jamaican funk (but not over the top style as Hampden), the smell and taste is bold, rich, deep, turning towards bitter and with a bitter and warming aftertaste od blackstrap molasses which works very nicely in mixed drinks. Myers Dark is very distinctive, maybe not to everyone's liking as it is not the usual dark rum with lots of added sugar, artificial vanilla aroma and other additives, but I will definitely buy this rum again. This one a solid dark mixer which cuts through coke or ginger beer very nicely and it is also a good value for money.

I bought it for mixing and it does the job. A bit heavy on the molasses and sweetness so I don't sip it. But in cocktails it's wonderfully spicy.

I tried this several times in Jamaica. Flavor was OK but no real complexity and a bit too much burn on the short finish. I would reserve this for mixing.

I like my Rums neat, this is definitely a mixer. It has some "nice" weird flavours going on when neat, but it really does seem to work great as a mixer.

She is dark and now I remember Myers LOL.
Some said she is taste better with coke or coffee. I just drink neat, gorgeous!
