Tasting Vintage ‘70s Jamaican Rums | Appleton & Myers’s Rum
Myers's Planter's Punch Brand Old Jamaica Rum
Reviews land in the middle — pleasant enough, nothing that grabs anyone. It's a dark, mellow Jamaican at 40%: soft caramel, a bit of dark fruit, banana and a touch of pepper. One member loves it with ginger beer, another bakes it into rum chocolate cake. Most people reach for it as a mixer rather than a glass to study.
The community says- Dark and mellow
- Less suitable for: drinkers after a refined sipping rum — this is a mixer at heart
- Keep in mind: Not a sipper

How does Myers's Planter's Punch Brand Old Jamaica Rum taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Dark, mellow Jamaican built for mixing Only a handful of verdicts so far, and they cluster around "fine, not special" — a mellow dark rum people mix rather than sip, with one or two fans of its caramel side.

Loving it with ginger beer
Review by Nils Eickmann
Tastes and smells subtly of dark fruit. Unfortunately, it leaves a lot to be desired in the mouth and finish. The dark color suits the rum well in the glass. I don't think I'll become a fan of this rum. Just trying to gain experience, that's what this tasting is worth.
