    "A low-end, over-spiced rum. It's undrinkable neat and made especially for cocktails, but even then its spicy taste takes over too much. For the same price, it's better to choose a Cuban rum that won't distort the cocktail."

    "Edit: Now that I mix pretty much every rum I can get my hands on and am looking for the ultimate CubaLibre, I have to say that the Captain is no longer my cup of tea. Somehow I find it very artificial in taste. On its own, it doesn't go down my throat at all. I used to like it in cola, but now it's even too sweet for a rum and coke."
