Drinks cabinet: Captain Morgans Rum

Another Rum I hear you cry, don't worry I'm still getting around to Gin, Port and Whiskey reviews...

Captain Morgan's rum is a another spiced rum, with a slightly lighter flavour than its competitors. -I don't count previously reviewed Sailor Jerry's among this group as Sailor's is really a different breed.

Cap'n M's is a nice drink enjoyed with Coke, had neat you may find it 'goes to your head' a little to quick. This rum has a slightly more 'spiced/fruit' flavour than say Havana Club Rum, which we'll review soon too. It can taste a little plasticy when mixed with 'full' coke, but with Diet coke the rum's own flavour come through stronger, enhancing the drink.

It has to be said that with Cap'n M's you know what you are getting, a good solid 'rum' flavour that is consistent between bottles, and widely available from almost anywhere. A good staple drinks cabinet rum, which hits the spot when needed.
