    I love Captain Morgan Rum sooooo much w/ coke and only coke, that I take my own coke too the bars in our vacation town 'cause they use R C COLA instead, that sucks! Also my brother owns a Beef and Ale house that I frequent often and back 3 weeks ago he thought I was crazy when I said there was something wrong with the Captain (rum) he insisted it was me. Low and behold a week later his supplier told him there was a BAD batch. What the HELL does that mean? why wasn't there a recall or a warning or something Mbass88

    OK, the trick to the Captain is to know what to mix it with. A lot drink Captain and Coke because well..that's the only thing they have heard of. BUT THIS IS A SECRET MY AUNT SAID SHE FOUND OUT ON VACATION. 100% dole pineapple juice and captn on ice. you might say, ick! like i did the first time i heard of it, but it's one of the best drinks ever. seriously. I'd give capn and coke a 2 1/2 but the pineapple and capn gets a 5!

    When I first had captain morgans rum i thought it was great, excellent. and then I had an 8 dollar rum which was disgusting and I thought morgan was even better. then I delved into the world of high end liquor. I had a shot of captain morgan today and was sorely disapointed. overly sweet and not enough spice, really all around unpleasant and no subtlety to the flavor at all. I'll stick with rums from 26 to 80 dollars and keep my quality over quantity , thanks.

    Gotta love the Captain! Mixes great with A&W Rootbeer, actually tastes like cream soda, goes down easy, hardly know its there till you stand up. Great mixer all around or just for taking shots. This one deserves a permanent place in your bar.

    If the captain would eliminate the spices, it might compare with Myers which is definitely the BEST. Any Jamaican rum is excellent. J. Wray etc.

    Captain Morgan's spiced rum has a nice flavor that isn't overly spicy. I prefer this rum in a rum and coke. The spices go really well with all the flavor that coke has to offer. I am a fan of most of Captain Morgan's and this is a really nice rum.

    One of my friends once said "the Captain's hapennin'," but I disagree. Sugar and spice is not everything nice in this liquor. I do not know why anyone would want to layer a weird spice blend on top of the already sweet rum. Certainly you could not use this in a mojito which is my rum drink-of-choice.

    Overrated and overpriced. It's not bad on the rocks or as a mixer. The morgan private stock is a better but more costly choice over the spiced rum. However mt. gay and sailor jerry's are superior spiced rums. 25.99 for a 1.75 liter of morgan standard spiced rum really makes me feel like i am being ripped off. However it does have a good smooth subtley sweet taste with undertones of vanilla. Anyway overrated, 3 out of 5.

    Captain Morgan's is not enough better than Lady Bligh to justify the extra cost. It is best mixed but okay sipped. The spice is strong for rum but nothing like the intensity of gin.

    It's delicious and gets you drunk. What more do you need? It's sweet, not bitter like beer or gin or tasteless like vodka. Morgan is much easier to drink than Bacardi Gold because it's lighter and doesn't burn as hard. It has sort of a mild delayed reaction burn and taste which is kind of cool. It's great with coke. It's also great with Mountain Dew except it looks like a glass full of urine. It's also cheaper than a lot of other hard liquors.

    I'm not a huge rum fan but it's one of the better one's I've tried. The Special Reserve version of Captain is better. Makes a great rum n' Coke..

    Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum is the most consistent and readily available rum in the world. The "handle" is the almost-perfect size and its perfectly engineered shape makes pouring easy for anyone; like myself, who drinks it exclusively and often. I say "almost-perfect" because I wish it was available in 55 gallon drums! Bacardi gives me terrible heartburn so I abandoned that more than 20 years ago and all other rums are hit-or-miss. My drink of choice has always been and will continue to be Captain's in Coca-Cola (Classic). I use 10 oz., tall drink glasses (cylinder shape) with fresh ice, a garnish of lemon and a maraschino cherry with a silver spoon-straw. Here's to you!

    It's popular among frat guys. That should serve as evidence that it's not good rum. It's no better than bacardi, and it costs more, making it a poor value for the money. There's nothing special about it, and after trying it a few times I'll never buy a bottle of it. Stick with better rums like Flor de Cana or just buy a handle of bacardi if you need rum to get drunk on.

    I can't say that I've ever liked Captain Morgan, but I used to be able to drink it, and four or five years ago I might have been able to give it at least 2 stars. But then one night about 4 years ago or so, I was drinking Jim Beam, but the bottle was fairly low before I even started, and I ran out. So I switched to Captain Morgan. Really bad idea. Now just the taste of Captain Morgan makes me want to throw up.

    I went through alot of different beverages befor eI found the captain and thank goodness I found him!! :)  You can drink the captain without the headache from JD and the dizziness of vodka.  Captain lets you be mellow and is best served ice chilled.

    In my opinion Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum has rich, bold and extremely smooth flavor, though not the finest rum it is by far one of the best and is well suited for sipping and mixing. I myself prefer to drink it straight up.

    I like Capt and Coke it has been my drink for years. Sometimes in the mood of celebration I will over do it and with the Captian I don't make a complete ass of myself. With other drinks like vodka - bad things happen. Tequeila well, lets not go there, anyhow this is a great drink for the club most anyone who has never had it will be a convert soon after.

    Fine if you like a vanilla flvored rum and coke but not a quality rum by any stretch of the imagination.

    sailing with the captain is great, as my friend marcus taught me in college only with 7-up though, anything else you loose the great taste, for some reason when mixed with 7 up something happens and the spices come alive. It gets a cream soda taste almost. have had it with coke, not a big fan. if you are gonna sail, get a 2 liter of 7-up and a bottle of captain's and you will have a good night

    If you like this rum you really need to try some real rum. Go and try Havana club 7 yrs(from cuba)Morgan's spiced is artificial, sickly sweet...If you have money, get a bottle of Ron zacapa 23 yrs.

    I sampled Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Mango-flavored rum once, and I did not perticularly enjoy it. I took a few swigs straight, and it felt like instan heartburn. Seeing as I suffer from acid-reflux, getting the sensation of heartburn is less than satisfying. Not what I look for in a higher-quality rum.

    My husband and I travelled to Belize during April 2005 and stayed at Captain Morgan's Retreat, San Pedra for 4 nights and I have not had a worse vacation than this one. The staff at Captain Morgan are plain rude. Watch out for charges they'll add to your account in the blink of an eye. They have this thing called the Activities Center which is just a way to rip off people in their retreat. If you go and talk to one of staff there, he/she will quote you a price for rentals etc and if you go talk to another person at the same office, they'll quote you a different price. We thought their business was REAL shady. The worst part is that since it is not on San Pedro your options to shop around for deals (for snorkeling, parasailing, Scuba etc) are nill. The first time we signed up with Captain Morgan' for snorkeling was a bad experience. I thought the captain was really inexperienced as all we saw throughout the trip were sting rays. We talked to other people on san pedro and they told us ... Read more

    I love captain and coke in the winter and captain in gingerale in the summer. However, I am on the Low Carb diet and have no idea of the carb content of the liquor. I use diet coke or ginger now but dont know if the Capt. is messing up the diet? Does anyone know the carb content of the Capt.? Please e-mail me if you do.

    It's always a good night when your sailing with the Captain, my favorite rum by far. Try it with Dr Pepper, it's the nectar of the gods.

    OK if all you want is a cheap buzz without paying through the nose. Strictly for amateurs or those on a budget. Best with 7-UP (it may sound odd, but I've gotten several friends hooked on this as their drink of choice when volume is the theme of the night). If you really want enjoy the rum rather than the mixer, I'd suggest Appleton Estate or Cruzan 5-year.
