United States Virgin Islands Captain Morgan

The spirit drink is aged in Double Charred Blackened Oak Barrels. It is Blackstrap rum (very thick molasses), Rich Clove Spice and Premium Cassia bark.

The spices are what lead to its darker color. Lighter in color, usually silver or white. The extended time it spends in wooden casks gives it a color that can range from amber to dark brown. True black rum contains extra molasses or caramel to darken the color and sweeten it.

The base rum is from Trinidad, distilled from molasses made from sugar cane. The rum is aged 1–2 years and then blended with a mix of 11 spices, including cinnamon, ginger and clove. The liquid is black, revealing hints of brown when held up to the light.

Spiced Rum is a versatile Spirit. It will work in many drinks, hot or cold, but it will also give your tiramisu, apple pie, and other desserts that call for a splash of Rum a real kick.

Spiced Rum At Diageo USVI, we proudly make Captain Morgan® Original Spiced Rum. Smooth and medium bodied, this spiced rum is a secret blend of Caribbean rums that have a mellow spice and other natural flavors.

Captain Morgan Rum is named after a 17th century pirate with an infectious zest for life. It's a blend of aged Caribbean and Indian Rum with the heritage of Jamaica at its heart.

Spiced rum has its roots in the 16th century when sailors and pirates in the Caribbean added spices and other ingredients to their rum to mask the harsh taste of low-quality alcohol. This practice gave birth to the first spiced rums, which were used both as a beverage and a form of currency among sailors.

Spiced rum is just that: rum - usually gold or dark varieties - with spices added to it. The most common spices used are cinnamon, vanilla, cardamom and cloves, but some versions also use aniseed, nutmeg or pepper. Many brands also add some caramel for extra sweetness.

A Spiced Rum is any kind of rum that has been flavored with natural herbs and spices. The spices are generally derived from seeds, roots, dried fruits, barks, or leaves. For instance, clove, cinnamon, cassia, vanilla, star anise, citrus fruit, nutmeg, cardamom, orange peel, ginger, pepper, allspice, among many others.

Spiced rums often have additional flavours such as vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar. Traditionally this was done to mask inferior spirit, but flavoured rums have become a drink in their own right – Foursquare and Sailor Jerry are both excellent.

How It's Made Today. Today, Captain Morgan is created with yeast, molasses, water, and mash. That beautiful golden color and sweet taste comes from the molasses (sugarcane). After distilling, it's aged in oak barrels for up to a year.
