Captain Morgan White is a traditional white molasses rum.
This is a rum made to be drunk with cola or in cocktails. It makes particularly good mojitos...
Nico's tasting notes
In brief: light - ethereal - lemon - cane sugar syrup - caramel
The nose opens with the ethereal notes of a light rum, although there are hints of burnt caramel, nuts and vanilla.
With a little air, the rum thickens on a lemony cane sugar syrup, giving it a candy-like quality. The alcohol is tinged with a slightly industrial character, with solvent and charcoal.
On the palate, the initial burst of aromas is heavier than expected, with ripe tropical fruits and almond. There's also a hint of coconut, and even sugarcane. Lighter alcohol notes then soften this rather "English-style" profile.
The finish is fine and light, with a hint of caramel on the nose.
"This light rum was designed for cocktails; it expresses itself more on the palate..."
