I am a girl who absolutely love mixed drinks though! Whenever I go to the liquor store, Captain is always my go to brand of what I get unless I'm specifically trying to pick something new and different. It is the best liquor to mix with coke and dr. When I'm out of the dark sodas I mix with ginger ale, sierra mist, etc. It's a completely different drink but tastes just as good. Let me begin by saying I love spiced rum. It's my favorite type of liquor. I've had and enjoyed many brands of spiced rum.
So I feel qualified to say that Captain Morgan is terrible. It's the worst spiced rum I've had, with the exception perhaps of a few of the bargain bottom shelf brands. Saying that Captain Morgan is great because it's "spicy but goes down smooth" or any other such remark is nonsense really, seeing as though that fits the general description of "spiced rum. It has just enough burn to be noticed with cola, but not enough burn to be off-setting. If you serve Captain Morgan at a party, probably all of your guest will accept it.

The review was updated on June 15, with a spirit from a glass bottle as shown in the new photo. There was no substantive changes in either the tasting notes nor the score. It is my current belief that PET plastic does not alter the taste of spirits. The PET plastic bottles still cheapen the overall look of the product however.
When I drink liquor from a plastic bottle I can always taste the plastic. The plastic gets into the liquor and to verify this you can see baby bottles are no longer made with the typical plastic. Cheers anyhow! I have quite a collection of small ml flask style bottles that are glass and plastic PET , and I have reviewed spirits from both styles of bottles.
I am currently doing a review for Abuelo Rum from a glass flask. There is a bit of controversy surrounding the issue of plastic bottles, and I have been told by some manufacturers that the new environmentally friendly plastic bottles are manufactured differently than before and leave no plastic residue or taste in the spirit.

Surprisingly, at least to me, I enjoyed this rum. The added vanilla is not overwhelming and harmonizes nicely with the basic beverage which is a straight-forward, lightly-aged and therefore lightly-colored mid-body rum My friends enjoyed this as a mixer with Coke and I found it perfectly satisfying on the rocks Recommended, at its price, for these purposes.

I have been a fan of Captain Original Spiced for over 10 years. However not a sipping rum but well mixed with any carbonated drink I have tried. Posted almost 5 years ago by Philippe Roy from Canada with 32 ratings. Probably like every young aldult it is where they start with rum. Its good for family reunion or just with your friend that are not use to other rum. Strong taste of vanilla. I got to afmit i still pour myself a rum a coke from the captain once in a while for old time sake.
Posted over 6 years ago by Nicholas Miller from United States with 75 ratings. Captain Morgan really gave a lot of people their start and most pay nostalgia to it for that reason but as a rum its average at best. Those 2 also trump C morgan in taste which is why I cant see this a staple all around rum anymore. Captain Morgan is a light brown rum which means its age isnt that high but who would think it was, after all this rum is production.
Its like this, if there was a rum machine that spit out rum bacardi would given it 1 crank and C morgan diego gives it 2 cranks. Its a step up but still not that good. In the glass it smells like vanilla and alcohol and that it about it. Drinking it straight gives you a large blast of vanilla, sweetness from honey and a harshness of alcohol and a spiced tinge at the end.
Not very complex in flavor so as a sipper you would missing out on a lot of life. In coke it gives you a rum in coke that is something you would expect from production rums. Vanilla extract hit and some sweetness with some alcohol lurking in the back and even then its fairly faint. My real problem with C morgan is for whatever reason after more than 1 rum and coke it starts tasting very bitter to the point were I switch to gin.
Captain Morgan's biggest strength is you can find it anywhere, so even at wits end you still have some sort of okay rum at a bar. Posted almost 7 years ago by Scott T from United States with ratings.
One of the worst spiced rums there is yet far and away the best known. Posted over 5 years ago by Mal from United States with 11 ratings. So I have been avoiding trying Captain Morgan because of how cheap it is I know don't judge a book by it's cover and how basic it is.
I mean you can literally get Captain Morgan everywhere and I mean everywhere. Well while sitting at a bar one night I finally just decided to go for the classic Captain and Cola expecting the worst.
I honestly expected this to be like Bacardi which is my most hated rum of all. Being a gold rum is not good for Mojito and Daiquiri. IVA Credits. Captain Morgan original spiced gold rum tasting notes and review October Tasting: Spirits review: J.
