Myers’s Original Dark Rum 750ml
Myers’s Original Dark Rum is one of the most iconic and beloved dark rums in the world — a rich, full-bodied Jamaican rum with a heritage stretching back to 1879, when Fred L. Myers established his legendary rum-making operation on the island of Jamaica. For nearly 150 years, Myers’s has been the gold standard for dark rum — a deeply flavorful, molasses-rich spirit that has earned its place as an essential ingredient in countless classic cocktails and a deeply satisfying sipping rum in its own right.
Crafted from a blend of nine different pot and column still rums, each aged up to four years in charred white oak barrels, Myers’s Original Dark achieves a remarkable depth and complexity that is instantly recognizable — bold, rich, and unmistakably Jamaican.
