Captain Morgan Spiced Rum is known for its sweet and warming taste, featuring notes of vanilla, caramel, and baking spices like cinnamon and cloves. Its history traces back to 1944 when Seagrams CEO Samuel Bronfman bought the rights to a spiced rum recipe from a Jamaican pharmacy. It's a popular choice for those new to rum or looking for a versatile mixer due to its approachable flavor profile and smooth finish, making it great for cocktails or simply with cola.
