Captain Morgan Dark Rum, the original Black Label, is a blend of Caribbean rums with a deep, dark colour and a rich, full-bodied character. Unlike the brand’s famous spiced rums, this is a straight dark rum: molasses-led, mellow and sweet-edged, with the kind of depth that stands up in a long drink.
It carries the Jamaican heritage the Captain Morgan name is built on — intense caramel and vanilla, a touch of dried fruit, and a gentle smokiness from the cask. Pour it with cola, build a punch around it, or use it anywhere a recipe calls for dark rum.
