Captain Morgan Black Label Rum

Captian Morgan *********** Captain Morgans rum is named after Captain Morgan, funnily enough.

Captain Morgan is my favourite 'tipple'. i have no idea baout its history and I dont really give a thought about history when sitting down in a bar and chooshing which beverge to have. Captain Morgan is within the catagory of Rum, dark rum. It is a slightly fruity, slightly bitter rum. Dont get dark rum confused with white, it has a completley differetn taste. Although it is very different to other dark rum like (Navy rum) as it is less bitter. It is less sweet than Sailor Jerry as it doesnt have a vanilla undertone.

Captain Morgan Black Label rum offers a unique depth of taste recalling the years of my father and grandfather drinking this whilst playing cards. This drink has a unique taste not suited to most drinkers but rum connoisseurs alike will like its strong taste. Its strong smooth and distinctive , drink neat at your own peril. Its full dark colour and smell reminds me of a rough oldness and fullness of character. The taste of this drink is unmissable and u can tell it's amongst one of the best dark rums on the market. £ 13.95 - £ 15.99 is a price that varies amongst most supermarkets and good offlicences. In summary a truely ...  Read the complete review
