Plantation 2003 Trinidad

Great all around! 12 year double aged. Having tried most of the Plantation line up with little disappointment I bought a bottle of this. For a 12 year aged rum it has t

Opthimus 25-year

Best I’ve had so far I drink my rum neat. I’ve tried several mid to high end sipping rums that I would consider 9’s. Some have come close to a 10 but I am the kind of pers

Opthimus Malt Whisky Finish 25-year

Absolutely perfect I’ve tried several of the other rums offered by Opthimus and have never been disappointed. The standard 25 year was the first rum I gave a 10 rating,

Dictador XO Insolent

Stunning! After trying a bottle of 20 year solera from Dictador I thought I would give this a go. Unlike the 20 year old, this one has a subtle aroma. It is swe

Opthimus Port Finish 25-year

Zafra Master Reserve 21

An excellent choice Overall this rum has a lot going for it. It is smooth and has good flavor. Not overly powerful up front, has very little lingering taste, and not very

Excellent!! Great from start to finish. Robust and smooth with full flavor. Great choice for a neat sipper.

Liquid gold The presentation of this rum is excellent. The color is very deep red and brown, smell is subtle and enticing. Great initial flavor, exceptionally smo

Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

Superb!! I’ve not tried a rum yet that deserves a 10 rating. I’ve rated some 9’s before and believe there is always something better. This however is as close

Opthimus 21-year

Another great choice from Oliver & Oliver Having tried and rated both the 25 year and 25 year port finish I thought I would try this. All around great. Smooth, great sweet taste with just a li

El Dorado 21-year

Surprised I’m not a big fan of this brand. The others I’ve tried in the past seem harsh and not to my taste. This bottle was given to me as a gift. Starting off

Foursquare 2007 Sagacity 12-year

New offering from Foursquare Released August of last year (2019). Like the 2005 version this one is a blend of 12 year rum that has been aged in ex-bourbon and ex-Madeira casks. I

Relicario Dominicano Supremo

Best coconut rum by far! A friend of mine brought this bottle back from Florida for me since it is unavailable in my state. Having tried and rated the spiced offering from Sie

Dos Maderas PX 5+5

Well done In the glass it has a very nice yet somewhat subtle aroma. Taste is smooth and sweet without being overbearing. You must like sweet and heavier rums t

Foursquare 2004 Zinfandel Cask Blend 11-year

Surprised!! I was apprehensive to give this a try. No added sugar or flavors, sounds bland. Wow was I wrong. Subtle taste, great aroma, smooth finish. Overall a e

Ron Zacapa Edicion Negra

Excellent sipper I am a big fan of the Zacapa line of rum. The smoky flavor and intensity really adds a lot of character to this rum. A very different and bold taste c

Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Great all around This is a staple in my cabinet. A great rum to break in new people to drinking rum. Not too harsh or overbearing and quite smooth. An excellent value

Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Some of the best Without breaking the bank Solera 23 is one of the best out there. Not too strong, full of flavor, and smooth. An excellent choice for someone wanting

Mount Gay XO Extra Old

All around good This rum has a nice subtle taste and is quite smooth. It’s a blended rum with 7 to 15 year aged rums being used. Great color and overall nice to sip n

Vizcaya VXOP 21

Great aroma, but... Right out of the gate this rum starts off with a very sweet and pleasant aroma. The taste however is a little lacking. Even after sitting a while ther

Real McCoy Single Blended 12-year

Pleasantly surprised I was on the fence about trying this one after reading the reviews, but finally decided to give it a try. If I had to rate it right out of the bottle

Another good one from Brugal Having tried and rated a bottle of 1888 Ron Gran Reserva Familiar I saw this one as a new product at my local store and thought I would try it. After

Captain Morgan Jack O Blast Pumpkin Spiced

Great seasonal drink I am a huge fan of anything pumpkin flavored. I was glad to see that captain brought this back this year. I bought 6 bottles last year and was running

Plantation 2004 Peru

Another great offering I’m a big fan of Plantaion rum. This is a double aged 14 year rum. Not overbearing with the oak casks or too sweet from the Ferrand barrels. A nice ar

Real McCoy 2017 Limited Edition 10-year

Another great offering from The Real McCoy Limited edition 10 year. Overall a very nice sipping rum.

Kirk and Sweeney 23-year

A cut above This is a much better offering than the 18 year old. Nice from start to finish.

Kaniche Perfeccion

Sweet & Subtle Bottle says double wood aged in bourbon then finished in cognac casks. It does not say how long it was aged. You can definitely taste the two casks. T

Papas Pilar Marquesas Blend

Another good find I came across this bottle at a Total Wine & Beverage. The person working there said that it was exclusively made for that chain of liquor stores here

Diplomatico Distillery Collection No1 Batch Kettle

Decent Not my favorite offering from Diplomatico. Very smooth but lacks in flavor and depth. The aroma is excellent and inviting. Overall just an average to

Foursquare 2010 Detente 10-year

On par Foursquare produces a nice product. To me they are all about equal. Without the addition of anything they make a smooth & mostly sweet rum. To me they

Diplomatico Reserva

One to try I’m a big fan of Diplomatico. I’ve tried and rated several offerings. One thing that is a commonality between them is the price. This is a 2-8 year ag

English Harbour 2010 Madeira Cask Finish 5-year

Just ok This is my first try from English Harbour. It was a new product at my local favorite store and was recommended. The aroma is subtle, pleasant, and in

Siesta Key Spiced

Good job. I’m not much for spiced rum. A friend of mine brought a bottle of this back for me as a gift. It is very different from the usual Captain Morgan’s or

El Dorado 2017 Master Blender’s Special Edition

New offering Found this new El Dorado special edition in my local store. I’ve never been a big fan of El Dorado rum but I like to try anything special edition. The

Yolo Gold 10-year

Excellent choice Saw this bottle at a local store and looked it up to see how it was rated. Only finding one rating I was dubious, but thought the risk was worth it se

Abuelo Reserva Superior 7-year

As expected Recently tried a glass of this neat. Was what I expected from a 7 year rum. Not overly smooth or flavorful but not bland and harsh either. All around

Captain Morgan Limited Edition

Great from start to finish! Typically I would not put Captain Morgan’s in the sipping neat category. Although this stuff has not been on the shelf for years and is almost impossi

Kirk and Sweeney 18-year

Comparable It’s a good rum with a lot of flavor and a little bite. However, I would say it is priced in the market where there are other brands and choices to co

Captain Morgan Loconut

Captain Morgan 1671

Another very good offering Another limited edition gone forever. A few bottles still can be found online, but long gone from store shelves. Although I did not like this as much

Flor de Caña 18-year

Was expecting more Don't get me wrong this is a very good sipping rum. It is very smooth and balanced. It is just a little to subtle on taste for my liking. Good, yes, b

Isla Grande Maison Centenaire 30-year

El Pasador de Oro Gran Reserva

Nice rum, nice price Found a bottle of this on vacation. $44 here in the U.S.. The initial rush and overpowering alcohol smell is intense at first. After it sits for a few

Cartavio 12-year

A nice rum for the price For a $30 bottle it is a good choice for a decent rum. Not quite to the level of a bottle of Ron Cartavio XO, but not bad. The aroma is inviting, the

Doorly's ABV43 12-year

Nice rum, needs a little more. Overall this is a good sipping rum. Nice inviting aroma, not over sweet and smooth. Not too strong on the front end but does have a slight unpleasant

Alegro XO 8-year

Good rum at a good price I found this bottle at a new liquor store that opened near me. This site had only 2 ratings on it so I thought I would give it a try. For a $30 bottle

Angostura 1824 12-year

A little lacking.... This is an ok example of a 12 year rum. It is smooth and clean. It does not have much in the way of flavor, depth, or aroma. It’s not the worst I’ve t

Centenario 9-year

Ok Light on the color, ok on the taste and smoothness. About what I would expect from a bottle at this price. Not great but passable.

Bacardi Gran Reserva 8-year

Marginal I've never been a big Bacardi fan but a friend of mine got a bottle of this so I gave it a try. I drink my rum neat so that is the way I tried this on

Baron Samedi Spiced

Intense!! I’m not one for mixing my rum but if you are looking for a spiced rum for mixing this will definitely add some zing to your beverage.

El Dorado 12-year

Better options This was my first experience with El Dorado. Maybe starting with a 12 year was a mistake. This brand gets a lot of good reviews. To harsh and not very

Appleton Estate Extra 12-year

A little disappointed I have tried to like rum from this region and I always end up expecting more. It ranks just ok in my book. Not a very good sipper, neat. Maybe it’s ok

Santa Teresa 1796

A little disappointed Not too many stores carry this brand so when I came across a bottle I grabbed it. This has a fairly high rating so I thought it would be worth the ris

Diplomatico Mantuano

Captain Morgan Silver Spiced

Captain Morgan Private Stock

Not my favorite Captain Don't get me wrong, Captain Morgan produces a lot of good products. I have tried, and rated a lot of their rum. This one however falls short of my exp

Black Magic Black Spiced

Better than some Side by side with kraken it’s tough to tell the difference, except this one is not as bad. Drinkable if you had to, in a mix it might be ok.

Captain Morgan 100

Mix it up This should be the standard for a mixing spiced rum. Who can argue with a 100 proof rum and coke.

Captain Morgan Cannon Blast

Not for everyone, or anyone. Captain Morgan brings out special products every so often and then they are gone. Some are quite good, others not so much. This is marginal at best, u

Kraken Black Spiced

No With all the spiced rum out there my only question is why? Not for me for sure.

Clement Select Barrel

Not good This is my first taste of an agricole rum. I’m not sure if this is a good example of the type but it was not for me. It wasn’t the worst I’ve tried, b
