William Grant & Sons Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum
Most people land on the same verdict: this is a cinnamon-and-vanilla spiced rum built for cola, not the tasting glass. Members taste caramel, brown sugar and butterscotch up front, but a lot of them call the vanilla artificial and the finish thin and short. One reviewer nailed it as "vanilla-cherry cola." Fine for a Cuba Libre, underwhelming neat.
The community says- Great with cola
- Keep in mind: Thin, short finish
- Keep in mind: Artificial vanilla

How does William Grant & Sons Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Cinnamon-vanilla spiced rum, best in cola Opinion is fairly settled: an okay basic spiced rum that shines in cola and falls flat sipped neat, where the finish turns thin and a bit hot.

Sweet and spicy. Great with cola, as it's short. Smooth and a personal favourite. As many prophets and heroes have said in the past- "a great bit of kit"
Review by Gregor
Most helpful critical review
Strongly caramel, vanilla, and butterscotch. However, very short-lived.
Review by Timo Groeger
Well, we have a spiced rum here. I find it quite okay, there are worse spiced rums. You can taste the cinnamon quite well. Mixed with cola it probably makes a great long drink.
Review by Josh Word
I've only had it with coke several years ago so i will have to give it another try. But i did enjoy it.
Review by Patrik Onderka
I got this one on my visit in Dubrovnik. Well, it’s spiced. I just wanted to try it because I didn’t have William Grant yet. To be honest it met my low expectations. I think it’s an ideal choice for mixology experiments.
Review by Rumbaron
Can be used for a Cuba Libre.
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
07.2024 First impression: beautiful, clear brown-golden color, otherwise unimpressive Nose: light, fleeting, a bit of vanilla Palate: scratchy, sharp, roasted Finish: medium length, bitter at the end Overall impression: weak, impresses with nothing, not even the spices. Will leave the bottle at the next party. Rating lowered to 5.5. 2022 Rated 60 without comment

Great for mixing
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
There's probably something better available whereever you are. Very light and not much character.
Review by Fred SB
Rum, or vanilla spice liqueur? Goes great with Coke as many who went to university in the 00s/10s will remember.
Review by Pandemonia
Not used to spiced rums, but this one didn't impress me. Even spiced it is a bit too sharp, burny and astringent to me. Smells better, sweeter and milder than it tastes, where it the spice is a bit too much and contributes to rather than tames the alcoholic burn. Butterscotch, caramel and vanilla on the nose. Spicy, coffee and oily on the palate. Forgetable finish with too much burn. Will not buy again.
Review by Montana
A slightly fruity flavor, light sweetness. In the aroma something like corn whiskey.a dry finish.
Review by Abrahan Reyes
I will say for a spiced rum I was expecting more flavor, the vanilla is subtle and artificial like. Also feels a bit alcoholic.
Review by Carlo C
Though strong alcoholic tinges, the taste and smell definitely are there to stay
Review by Clint Harris
A good basic spiced rum
Review by Mark Leggett
Smells of cinnamon and alcohol. Flavor follows the smell. Unmixed this always gives me a headache.
Review by Sebastiaan Linssen
As expected i am not impressed. Okay for mixing.
Review by tj deel
Generic spiced rum overrated and overpriced
Review by Thefrenchagave
William Grant & Sons Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum: a fairly basic spiced rum. Not bad, but without much originality. I don't necessarily recommend it if you're looking for something more distinctive.
Review by Oli Dekrell
Nose and first sip tasty, but unfortunately too thin towards the end...
Review by Louis Britten
Standard with mixer if limited choices available.
Review by Thibeau Venken
Smells like Redbull, max good for a mixer
Review by Kayla Roy
This tastes like vanilla-cherry cola.
Review by Thomas Burnett
In a rum and coke. In a pinch.
