Dark rum

Dark rum is a type of rum that is typically aged in oak barrels, resulting in a deep, rich flavor and dark color. It has a bold and complex taste profile, often with notes of molasses, caramel, and spices. Due to its intense flavor, it is commonly used in cocktails and mixology as a base spirit, adding depth and complexity to drinks like Dark & Stormys, Mai Tais, and Pina Coladas. Its versatility also makes it a popular choice for sipping on its own or in a variety of tropical and classic cocktails.
