35% ABVJamaica

Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold is the spiced rum that carries the Captain Morgan range, a brand named in honor of the 17th-century Welsh privateer Henry Morgan. Seagram began making the brand in 1944 and sold it to Diageo in 2001; Original Spiced arrived in the United States in 1984.

The recipe combines Caribbean rum, Madagascar vanilla, spices and natural flavorings; the vanilla was added in a 2023 reformulation. At 35% alcohol, it is classified in Europe as a rum-based spirit drink. The house recommends it with cola and lime, with pineapple juice or in cocktails such as the Jungle Bird.
