This is my first review on Dooyoo so I thought I'd dive in at the deep end and review a product responsible for many a good time. This drink is one of my favourite alcoholic beverages. Morgans Spiced Website tells us thatMorgans Spiced is actually distilled (in part) in Menstrie, Scotland. The rum is aged in charred oak casks and blended with other flavours such as cassia and vanilla. I prefer this brand over Captain Morgans (amber) any day. It is a little known fact that Diageo snapped up the previously independant company because it's sales were three times that of Diageo's own Bacardi rum in Scotland alone around 4 years ago. ...  Read the complete review

If you're looking for a good rum to drink, may I recommend this one? It's best served with coke over plenty of ice, and doesn't need any fruit to tang it up. I've enjoyed its instantly recognisable aroma for a number of years and the novelty still hasn't worn off. Plenty of other rums have tried to emulate its sweet spice combination and haven't come close in my opinion. Captain Morgan as a brand is well respected in the world of rum. I much prefer a smoother and sweeter blend which is why I go for gold rum as opposed to dark or white. Dark rum tends to be a bit abrasive on the old throat, I find, and may me grimace a little, as does whisky. Gold rum in ...  Read the complete review

Well to start, let's have a little history about this wonderful liquid gold. Who was he? He was Captain Henry Morgan, history tells us (well the drinks company at least) was one of the 17th Century's most daring and successful buccaneers, admired throughout Caribbean waters - a legend in his own lifetime, or lunch time depending upon how much of his own hooch he'd consumed You may be surprised to know that Capt Morgan was born in Wales in 1635, he sailed throughout the, then New World. Around the Caribbean, from Curacao to Panama City to Jamaica and beyond adventuring as a buccaneer. Capt Morgan became one of Britain's most ...  Read the complete review

Spirit drinking rivals the artist merit hard-core real ale drinkers insist exists within the production of their favourite alcoholic substance - beer. For me, the preferred typsifying - my newly adopted term - liquid has to be the (generally more potent) spirit which is distilled in many varieties. The contrasting colourings, strengths, smells, textures, tastes and affects received far out-weigh that which the pint pillaging community experience. There are also far more ways to enjoy your spirit; be it in a standard mix (with a soft drink), a compound cocktail (with other spirits and mixers), or simple on its own in a glass with ice 'on the rocks'. The individuality ...  Read the complete review

I don't actually drink that much anymore but on a recent night out, I was reminded of just how much I like Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum. Captain Morgan Sir Henry Morgan, better known as Captain Morgan was born in Wales in 1635 and was a successful buccaneer. In 1674 he was knighted by King Charles II and in 1690, he became the governor of Jamaica. In 1944 the Seagram Company began producing rum under the name of Captain Morgan Rum Company. Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum Spiced rum is very different to the usual white and dark rum. To be honest, I don't really enjoy the taste of alcohol (although I enjoy the effects) and I find that some of the ...  Read the complete review
