Plantation 2003 St. Lucia

very complex Even so I have some problems with the plantation range, this one is the best of them and not just the best of this range, it is a really good rum in g

Mount Gay XO Extra Old

Benchmark This Rum is just as Rum should be. Not too sweet, lots of aromas, long lasting. For 30€ the best I got so far.

Arcane Extraroma 12-year

This is really different In short: Very sweet and very complex. But I had to drink half of the bottle in around 2 month to beginn to like this Rum. In the beginning it is j

Pusser's British Navy ”Nelson’s Blood” 15-year

Just great After I really enjoyed the Blue Label Pusser's I decided to buy one of the 15yo for 35€ on amazon, what was really reasonable and a great price. Norma

Plantation 2004 St. Lucia

Best of the plantation core range From the core range of Plantation this is the best one in my opinion. It is not just sweet, but also really complex.

Barcelo Imperial

Good sipper This is a classic Dominican/Cuban style Rum. In Germany not much more expensive than the Barcelo Gran Anejo. It should be between 20-25 €. I have to a

El Dorado 12-year

Better than XM I really love it and got it for 23€. It sweet and complex. Just what I expect from a Rum.

Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Very famous, a bit overated My local Cocktail-Bar says this is the best choice for Cuba-libre. And yes they are right. This rum almost tastes a bit like coke, so it is a great co

Pusser's British Navy Blue Label ABV40 3-year

Navy style Got the 40% version for around 20€ and a good value. Strong but not harsh, surprisingly cheap. Rum how it should be, in my opinion. Makes me want to t

Plantation Original Dark

Best in his class For the 12 € I paid for this I got a lot of Rum. I think they somhow updated the original Dark, because it has a new lable now, which says that it als

Plantation Trinidad Original Dark Overproof

One of the best Overproofs for Mixing Of course not a sipper, but the best overproof mixer I know. No filler will destroy its taste. Unfortunately this bottle will leave the market soon an

Ingenio Manacas Extra Anejo

Nice story Nice story, nice taste, not as sweet like most in this price area. Got it for 26€.

XM Special 12-year

Expected more I bought this, after I really liked the XM 7yo. This one is not much better and looses against the El Dorado 12yo, which is even a bit cheaper than th

RL Seale ABV 43 10-year

Real Barbados This Rum is a lot of marketing + a nice bottle. It is comparable to the Mount Gay XO, with some advantages for the Mount Gay, which has more taste. Si

Pusser's Gunpowder Proof 3-year

Like 40% version Like the 40% version but stronger. amzon sells it for below 20€, so it's a sipper but also reasonable for cocktails, which demand a real rum taste.

Pyrat XO Reserve

Tastes nothing comparable so far The is a real taste for oranges overall. Beside this it is really sweet and with a hint of liquorice. I like it, but it belongs to the type of rums, w

Smith and Cross Traditional Jamaica Navy Strength

Probably good but not for me I don't like it as a sipper, but this rum is probably able to give any Mix its stamp. Even if one would mix with motor oil, you could still taste this

I like the idea I like the idea behind this Rum, but it is a bit too heavy for me. Comparable to the Smith and Cross Navy Strength Rum, which is also not a proper sip

Nice stuff, good price/value ratio I bought this bottle for around 20€ on amazon. Due to the bottle lable this rum got a finishing in sherry barrels, after a bit less than 7 years in bu

Pampero Aniversario Reserva Exclusiva

not too good I was a bit disappointed of this rum, after I was told so many good things about it. It doesn't have many interesting aromas and a strong tast for alc

Brugal Extra Viejo Gran Reserva

Good as long as it is below 20€ The Brugal Rums habe their place and I'm lucky, that they are more and more available in Germany. But they have their problem in the premium segment.

Mount Gay Eclipse

one of the best of the budget ones Feel happy if u live in a country, where they sell this in the Bacardy price area, coz it is much better. It can even be a sipper, if the standard is

Dos Maderas 5+3

something different First I don't like if they produce bottle for >20€ with only 37,5 % alc. This simply reminds me to much for much cheaper things. Second the concept of

Cockspur 12-year

My favorite from Barbados So far this one is my favorite from Barbados, after I became disappointed by the Barbados rums from the Foursquare company. But still, the Guyanan Rum

Pusser's Red Label ABV42

I don't know I somehow enjoy the red lable less than the blue lable, even so the red lable has more alcohol than the blue lable, so I thought it should be more int

Better than most others for this price In Germany this brand is pushing more and more into normal supermarkets, sold for a similar price range, like Bacardi and Havanna white or 3yo. In thi

Barcelo Gran Anejo

This is a sipper for rum newbies Like most Dominican Rums this one is also very smooth and easy to drink. But if the price difference to the Barcelo Imperial is not very large, what i

Chairman's Reserve 4-6 Years

The Lowland This Rum would be a "Lowland" if it would be a whisky. Got it for around 20€ and you can sipp it. The taste is on the smooth side, close the DomRep an

Angostura 1919 8-year

A Sipper This is a good sipper. Smooth and Sweet. But this the last price increase this bottle is now around 30 € in Germany and in this price area one can get

Appleton Estate Extra 12-year

A bit dissapointed I always wanted to try this one, since I always likes the mixers from appleton ( white and gold lable). So I expected this one to be a very great sipp

Plantation Black Cask 1651

Easy Easy sipper. Good buy for around 20€. But I prefer the normal Plantation bottles.

Dos Maderas PX 5+5

Strange type of Rum This tastes like Sherry with a harsh alcohol taste. I somehow prefer the cheaper version of this rum (2*4 or sth) this this one is more able to combin

Plantation Gran Anejo Guatemala & Belize

too sweet The other bottle from the Plantation range for around 20€. Again too sweet, not very complex. I'm not against adding sugar to rum in general. But if t

Plantation Barbados 5-year

Sweet very sweet Just sugar, so sweet that even the typical Barbados taste disappears, no complexity.

Old Monk XXX 7-year

Tastes like Christmas Tast like Christmas spices. Sometimes sold for low prices in indian supermarkets sth. below 15€. Then it is worth trying.

Overpriced Of course this bottle is easy to drink and smoth, but the problem is it is not much different to the Brugal anjeo, which is just half the price. I rea

Plantation Gran Anejo Guatemala

Won't buy it again After I was so postively surprised by the Plantation Original Dark Rum Trinidad&Jamaica Blend I ordered this bottle, since it also won a price by the

Doorly's XO 6-year

disapointed This Rum was recommed by my local rum dealer, so I had to buy it. But it doesn't has a clear profile, it is rather harsh. For the same price I can get

Better than the Barcelo White It is possibel to drink this one on the rocks. But normally you can get the Gran anejo already for very little more money. I do not understand where t

Good value, for this price I like, that I can find the Brugal Anjeco and blanced more more more in normal supermarkets. They make good mixers. Same price like Bacardi and Havana

Appleton Estate Special Gold

Great Mixer Great Mixer, but unfortunaltelly not so easy to get in Germy in normal stores.

Appleton Estate Reserve 8-year

I don't know For reasons I don't know they sell this often for (almost) the same price like the 12yo in Germany and sometimes even for a higher price, what is real

Gosling's Black Seal

Strange stuff If I would have get this rum in a blind tasting, I would not be sure if I would have said this is a rum. It tastes more like a bitter, a bit like Fern

Angostura 7-year

Not so good For the price I got this bottle, I can get better value. As a sipper try the 1919. As a mixer there are better ones for a lower price. All in all I do

Appleton Estate White

It still Appleton A great mixer, considering the price and if u are tired of Bacardi.

Bacardi Grand Melon

ok for mixing I guess the Barcadi flavored Rums are perfect for parties and to get girls out of their clothes. Not for sipping

Bacardi Dragon Berry

Dragon fruit Due to my experince dragon fruits don't have any taste at all, so has this bottle.

Matusalem Clasico 10-year

Posssible to buy better stuff for this price Got this for around 20 €. Not a very intering taste.Its the typicall "solera" talk. Pretending to be 10 years old, while in reality most of the conten

Havana Club Blanco

Better than Bacardi Always choose this over Bacardi, if you have the choice. Normally sold for the same price.

Havana Club 3-year

Better than Bacardi Since this one is normally sold for the same price as Bacardi White and Havana White, always choose this one, if you have the choice. It is smoother a

Bacardi Oakheart

A ray of hope for the Bacardo range Comparde to the other Bacardis this stuff is much better, than most other Bacardis in this price area. So if you have a choice, take this one. It come

Better than Bacardi and Havana Normally sold for the same price like Bacardi White and Havana White, but with better value.

Needs improvement The lemon taste should be less chemical. Beside this, it anyway doesn't taste like a rum, but I'm anyway not sure if this is intended.

Centenario 12-year

Definetely not a Re-Buy Maybe I got the wrong version or something, but the smell is very similar to window cleaner. The taste is slightly better, so it is possible to finish

nor worth trying I even don't know what this stuff could be mixed with. For the price one typically has to pay for this bottle in Germany, one can better a better mixe

Tastes cheap Maybe I just don't like flavored Rums. I've heard those from "Cruzan" are better, but more diffucult to get. This one just tastes unnatural.

Better than the White Lable Better than the white Lable one, but still: Do not drink Bacardi, as long as any other Rum is available.

Better than the White Lable A litte better than the Gold one, but still not god. In this Price are the Brugals are normally the better choice.

Bacardi Superior

Try this to know, how a Rum should not taste The only thing I like about this rum, is the style of the rum bottle. But seriously I do not understand, why this Rum is so popular. Spend some less m
