Myers's Original Dark Rum: The Bartender's Secret Weapon

Amira Benali — A baker's best friend

8/10

This is my go-to rum for cooking and baking. The intense molasses, coffee, and caramel flavours hold up brilliantly in rum cakes, bananas foster, and rum balls. The Jamaican funk adds depth you can't get from other dark rums. Affordable and dependable.

Myers's has a distinctly Jamaican character beneath all that molasses darkness — there's a fruity, slightly funky note that sets it apart from other dark rums. Rich coffee, caramel, and brown sugar with a hint of banana. Excellent for baking and great in a Rum Punch.

Cocktails, baking, cooking, tiki drinks, dark floats, or just with cola on a Friday night — Myers's does it all. The Jamaican pot still character gives it a fruity complexity that elevates everything it touches. The deep molasses and coffee notes are rich and satisfying. A true workhorse.
