RedLeg Spiced Rum

Very cheap spiced rum. Not great neat, but perfect if you're mixing with coke/ginger beer.

Didn't like this rum at all. Wasn't until I bought it from Morrisons, I realised it said "Spiced Rum Spirit Drink" at the bottom of the label. Which, I don't know if that means anything, but I have not seen this part on the label elsewhere.

Anyway... I'm very disappointed. It has absolutely no redeeming qualities. Very poor in comparrison to my usual Havana Club and Kraken choices. I can't taste any vanilla or ginger - all I can taste is alcohol. Might as well have bought a bottle of meths. Nearly as bad as Captain Morgan.

Lovely rum, by far my favourite and at a great price to. Easily the best rum i have tryed. Goes down very easy and for myself personally the perfect anount of spice/flavour. Not overpowering but you can tatse it. 10/10 from me.

Ive tried rums from havana club 15, 7, kraken, appleton estate etc.. Dont waste your money, you'll always come back to this one. Sweet, smooth, good mixer, better straight. Does smell of more vanilla than it tastes.

My new favourite rum! Smooth on its own or lovely mixed with coke or ginger ale. Highly recommend!

This is definitely not a sipping rum, because just like the pineapple version, neat, this has an horrendous alcohol after burn. The situation doesn’t improve that much when mixed with Coca-Cola either, as then this rum becomes a wee bit to sickly sweet. Cannot win, going from one extreme to another! You know the writing is on the wall for any rum, when, even when mixed with coke, it still doesn’t taste desirable! So I tried this with lemonade, as by this point, I felt I had nothing left to lose by experimenting. And you know what, it improved slightly because it became less sickly sweet. But unfortunately, whatever mixer you decide to use, it’s still going to have an unpleasant aftertaste. My advice if you have this rum stuck in your drinks cabinet, use it as part of a rum cocktail and you’ll be fine.

Best rum ever, my whole family loves it too. it's really good starter rum for people who are new to the drink, but also versatile and complex enough for a seasoned expert.

I’ve drunk quite a few really good/expensive brands of rum and whiskey I tried Red Leg yesterday (no ice or mixer; straight from the bottle) and was blown away with the taste and smell. It smells of intense vanilla (lovely) and whilst you can taste the alcohol, it is not so overpowering that it ruins the taste, which is beautifully sweet and spicy. If from time to time you fancy a drink that’s a little easier on the palate, then this is the ideal bottle to have in your home bar. Definitely recommend; I’ll be buying my own bottle very soon!
