..................'No rum and no pie'. :stuck_out_tongue:

bought one to celebrate dumping my gf heat

I used to love this, but they ruined it when they changed the recipe a few years ago.

CORRECTION: This is £14.30 a litre for 40%

Surprised the supermarkets sell any alcohol after xmas and new yr. everyone so sick of feeling hungover and with many swearing abstinence for at least a few weeks, who is left? Probably why we are seeing a deal like this.

tried old j not impressed and as for that asda version horrible

Bought 2 bottles today. At asda kings hill.

Thank you x

smh you're getting all uppity about saving 70 pence. How is it not a comparative offer? As a percentage of cost, the difference is negligible, but I'd rather buy the better tasting alcohol if it means paying a couple more pence per abv.

If you want real deals, I bought 2 litres of 120 proof Koskenkorva for £13 each, but it tasted like absolute paint stripper. By all means definitely worth it for the alc% but I'd much prefer paying an extra 70p to get something that's nice to drink straight

When I asked for a few examples of comparable offers on equal or superior rums, I did not expect comparable to be translated into nothing but how much alcohol by volume can I get for my £.

That said, even your comparison which does not even take taste into account, does not deliver more alcohol to the £.

Almost any 70cl bottle of liquor from Aldi is in the £10-13 range. Morrisons/Tesco frequently have sales of 37.5% Cpt Morgans Spice / 40% Russian Standard vodka for £15 a litre (comparison: this is ~£14.30 a litre for 35%)

I don't think anyone would suggest that SJ or any of the other rums mentioned are anything other than general run of the mill everyday mixing and slooshing rums. For aged sipping rums you really are going to have to pay somewhat more. :wink:

So help me out here with a few examples of offers on rum that you think are superior or at least marginally better?

From what I know, even supermarket own brand spirits at 40% ABV and aimed at the Jakie market retail at £11 for 70cl?

This isn't any special price for rum. I guess it's a good deal if you like the brand but personally I've never even heard of it

ahhh bless the website says serves 28..yeah right

Kraken...........ccoorrrrrrr.

Bought two bottles on Amazon for 16 each. Never drunk rum before.... looovveellyy

Same price on Amazon

nice deal

Its only 35%, so technically it's not classed as being rum!! I'll stick with Captain Morgans Black or Kraken.

​They now do a "Gold" version, which at 40% is the strength of the original SJ as well, not had a chance to try it yet though...

bought one to celebrate dumping my gf heat

Of all the spiced rums I've tried (cpt morgans, oakheart, lambs, kraken), this stuff is the nastiest.

In fact it's the only nasty one amongst them, I love the rest.

I second this. Old J is delicious, and definitely has the old taste of the original Sailor Jerry recipe.

Sounds good will nd to be sniffing aboot this find, HOT if proved8)

Like ma self a used to like Sailor Jerry with a little dash of coke and a wee slice of lime, like a snob as wis
a wee change fae the buckie and irn bru , until they changed the recipe about 5 plus years ago, crazy!!!
Well all is not lost try Asda's own Caribbean spiced rum (made in Holland) and at 12 quid a btl, a little dearer tho, but it taste just like the old Sailor Jerry folks with the vanilla taste, honest, a Scotsman knows his taste buds inside oot, u will not be disappointed muckers:{

Prefer Havana Club but that's rarely on offer :disappointed:

Heat added for this though as a tenner seems like a good deal :smiley:

I used to love this, but they ruined it when they changed the recipe a few years ago.

amazing

how does it compare to Captain Morgans spiced?

I agree, nothing like it used to be but cheap at £10.

Thank you. Ordered 4 bottles<3<3

Excellent info (well - the reviews are!). Thanks for that - it seems I am not alone in my opinion.

Ordered from Amazon. £9.50 with NUS discount. Super Hot!

EDIT: 5% quidco to!

cheaply made budget ingredients, tastes cheap too, fitting price

​Was just looking at Sailor Jerry 10 minutes ago and thought, wow that's went up in price a lot. Cheers for the info
:man:

thank you

Cheap

£10.00 (£5.00 / kg)
Sold by: Amazon It's on the right hand side under other sellers but is prime

Great price. No more spirits, the Mrs, nor the body will allow it.

Heat added

Amazing Bought 5 Bottles :smile:
