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 is better with a 'splash' aka coke, lime or soda, lemonade or within a cocktail. I would not recommend having this straight or with juice.

It's percentage is 35% so it is as strong as any other spirit and will cost you upwards of £12. Although not a cheap it is a definate for the alcohol cabinet or if you want to try something new.

Summary: A good carribean rum that is slightly different from the mainstream brands
