Bundaberg Over Proof 57.7% abv. Expensive but you might drop lucky at a Duty Free.

I'm almost down to the end of my Aldi "Old Hopkins" and have to say if you enjoy spiced Rum like Captain Morgans, the Aldi stuff is worth a go

Kraken is bloody delicious.

Just don't do it in pints like I tried last month.

Sailor Jerry spiced rum, nice Winter drink

Also Oakheart by Bacardi

Admiral's Old J Spiced Rum, best rum i've ever had, and i thought previously Kraken was as good as rum gets. Thank me later!

Snagged myself a bottle of El Dorado 15 for £38. Fucking yes! It’s normally in the region of £50. I love El Dorado 12 (best rum you can get for the price), so excited to try the 15 year El Dorado for the first time.

Can anyone recommend a dark rum to go with ginger beer? To be a “Dark n Stormy”, it legally has to be Gosling’s Black Seal, but it may not be the best way to go?

Has anyone tried Aldi's Sea Dog premium rum
Supposedly a really great product

So what's your weapon of choice?

I'm well into captain Morgan's spiced at the moment, but no doubt BM's will advise me of other better products

That’s like the Fosters of the spiced rum world.

Sailor Jerries
Old J
Kraken
even Bacardi Oakhouse spiced is better.

But BBC Good Food has a great list: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/review/best-spiced-rum

In the last few months, I've tried (by the bottle)
Kraken
Sailor Jerries
Havana club especial
Mount Gay
Captain Morgans
Aldi's Seadog

Havana Club is definitely the best from that list
