Myers's Reserve Dark Rum Review
Myers's is one of the biggest household names in Jamaican rum, and while this "Reserve" expression will run you about $5 more than the brand's flagship "Original Dark," you'll be glad you made the extra splurge. This rum kicks the brand's quintessential funky yet clean and fruity profile up a notch, and bumps the ABV to 43 percent. It definitely drinks a little hotter than its ABV suggests, but that makes it a prime cocktail component.
