Myers's Original Dark Jamaican Rum, 70cl

Myers's has been the world's best-selling dark Jamaican rum since 1879, founded by Fred L. Myers & Son in Kingston, Jamaica, and distilled there under government supervision to this day. It is crafted from 100% pure Jamaican molasses and then aged in white oak barrels, giving it the deep colour and bold character that made it the backbone of the classic Planter's Punch.

Spicy and intensely dark, it delivers rich notes of demerara sugar, molasses and burnt caramel, with the unmistakable taste of Jamaican sugar cane fields running through the whole glass. The finish is warm and full-bodied, built to stand up to citrus, ginger and spice in a proper tiki cocktail.

A cornerstone bottle for any home bar building serious tropical cocktails – best known as the essential rum for a Dark 'n' Stormy or Planter's Punch.
