Myers’s Original Dark is a staple for mixologists, but never was really intended as a sipper. This well known dark Jamaican rum is a must own for mixed drinks.

Although Sue Sea and I then proceeded to taste and review many, many more rums somehow that tempting bottle of Myers’s Legend (aged 10 years or more) never culminates in actually buying it.

Finally, we simply ran out of rums to reviews and yesterday I bought the Legend, at a wallet emptying $40, never discounted. I’m so glad I did.

Your review is exactly what we experienced, and for the very same reasons. Legend is complex, but not over so. It has elements of sweetness, but not overly so. Some bitter chocolate of coffee, and many other deep and rich impressions.

As Sue Sea puts it: “This is a dangerous rum”, meaning far, far too drinkable. This is a classic, pot-stilled Jamaican rum that reeks of smooth tradition. It may be the definitive dark rum.

Great review, and even though you don’t always publish my brilliant commentary, lol, we love ya and respect ya!
