katiepe Posted October 1, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Gosh when I saw your title I thought you must have been from the Maritimes! Thought this area of Canada was the heart of Capn Morgan drinkers! Oh and sorry I have no idea on the type onboard NCL. But can not imagine they would have the spiced.(unless they have apple cider too;)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relax@Sea Posted October 2, 2012 #3 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I specifically ordered CM Black and that what they gave me. It was probably on the ship so I got it. Make your request but be prepared if you don't get it. If it is not the one you ordered call room service and see if they can change it. If they have it on the ship they will probably exchange it for you. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishbait17 Posted October 2, 2012 #4 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Have been watching your thread, hoping for an answer... I have always assumed that "Captain Morgan's" meant the Spiced Rum, since that is what they sell in the Duty Free shop, but I also know that they carry bar setup items that are NOT available in duty free and vice versa, so now I am really wondering.. Would LOVE a good dark rum instead of Bacardi white! Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toberman Posted October 2, 2012 Author #6 Share Posted October 2, 2012 May have found my own answer... According to the Capt Morgans website, 'Dark' is not available in the US other than at Duty Free coming into Canada. :mad: Why?? It's a blend of Caribbean and Canadian rums. So now I'll have to wait to see if I get White, Amber or Black Spiced rum from NCL.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chloe173 Posted April 3, 2013 #9 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hmmmm...it appears you Canadians have been hiding the rum options from us! Sorry to tell you, but in the US Captain Morgan is pretty much synonymous with spiced rum, and I'd be quite surprised if you ended up with anything else.

Northern Bear Posted April 4, 2013 #11 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Got this from the group events coordinator (person you order bar setup from). "Please be informed that regretfully we do not have Meyers rum for pre-purchase. However, we have been informed the Bacardi Select is a dark rum and Captain Morgan is a spice rum with amber color" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs CruisinCritter Posted April 4, 2013 #13 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I've tried to read through all of the threads about bar set-ups and have not seen this asked before. Is it possible to get something that's not on the list if it's a liquor that they typically use on the ship? Malibu Coconut Rum is my favorite liquor when I'm in the Caribbean, but it's not on the list of available liquors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As stupid as it sounds, no. You can get it at the bar, get it in a suite or get it in a liquor package but not in a bar set-up. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say that you can get it in a suite, do you mean if we have one of the suites that has bottles of liquor as one of the perks or anyone who has a full suite can order a bottle once on board? What is a liquor package? I hate to ask more questions on this thread, but I have no idea how things work on NCL. I know that I can order a bottle of liquor through room service on Carnival and they will deliver it at any point throughout the cruise so I'm not sure if that's what you're talking about or if I'm totally out in left field on this.

toberman Posted April 4, 2013 Author #16 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Wow! I never realized you Canadians had sugar cane fields up there! LOL Yep... Niagara Peninsula - almost never freezes down there, the place is full of it!! And just like maple syrup - the best sugar comes when there is frost at night and warm temps in the daytime. And speaking of being 'full of it'... :rolleyes: :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wud really hate to get 'Spiced Rum' !! (Although I cud prob drink it ;)) I have the same problem. The house rum tends to be either Bacardi (white) rum or spiced. I missed out on the '2 for 1 happy hours' as I don't like either. Was able to get Meyers or Black Seal dark rum but at the normal drink price, them not being included in the 'Happy hour' scenario.

Aurora2143 Posted April 5, 2013 #21 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Rather than purchasing the bar setup, is the liquor the same price in one of their shops? If so, can you take it to your room, or will they hold it for you until the end of your sail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, can you take it to your room, or will they hold it for you until the end of your sail? Liquor is much cheaper in the shop, but they hold it until end of your sailing. Bar setup is the only way (following NCL Rules) to have a bottle of liquor in your cabin, other than paying for it "by the shot" price, which is much higher on the ship.

saleaaway Posted April 5, 2013 #24 Share Posted April 5, 2013 New to this request. How do you go about ordering bar set up in your room? Can that be done in advance of your 45 day request? Sailing on Breakaway and I drink coconut rum as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
