Dark Rum
Dark rum is where things get serious. Long aging in charred oak gives it a deep color and a big, warming flavor. Think molasses, brown sugar and baking spice. Pour it into a Dark 'n' Stormy or a Mai Tai. Or sip the good stuff neat. Some call it black or brown rum. Whatever you call it, the bottles worth drinking are right here. Shop the full dark rum range below, all backed by our price-match guarantee. Read more

Dark rum gets its colour from extended barrel time, added molasses, or both. Expect toffee, treacle and baking spice rather than the clean sugarcane lift of a white bottle. The heavier, funkier end overlaps with Jamaican rum; if you want the whole picture, start with our full rum range.
Best Dark Rum Brands to Buy
- Gosling's: the Bermuda classic, its 151 is built for a Dark 'n' Stormy.
- Ron Zacapa: rich and sherried, the 23 is smooth enough to sip slowly.
- Appleton Estate: aged Jamaican depth, led by the 12 Year.
- Mount Gay: bold, oaky Barbados style, try the Black Barrel.
- The Kraken: dark, full-bodied black spiced rum with real attitude.
- Bumbu: smooth and dessert-like, the XO is hugely popular.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What is dark rum?
Rum aged longer in charred oak, which deepens the color and brings out richer, molasses-forward flavor.
Is dark rum the same as black rum?
Mostly. "Black rum" usually means an even darker, heavier pour, like Gosling's.
What is the best dark rum for cocktails?
Gosling's for a Dark 'n' Stormy; Appleton or Planteray for a Mai Tai.
