Sugar cane & molasses-based spirits
Description
Generic rum with additive flavors, originally (and still) considered a folk liquor in Jamaica, it has become popular as commercially bottled by companies like Captain Morgan's and Bacardi Spice. The prevalent spice in spiced rum is vanilla with other spices in slight evidence, though in folk preparations cinnamon and allspice berry flavors are also common. The folk preparations (available only in Jamaica) are much preferable to the commercial bottlings.
