Value for money This never disappoints me. Clean, flavoursome and versatile. Would I drink it neat? Probably not. Would I be happy to have some? Absolutely.

Appleton Estate

Won't be disappointed Delicious on its own or over ice. Makes me proud to be Jamaican.

Havana Club Anejo Especial

My go to rum Probably my favourite session rum so far. I look forward to discovering an alternative that can eclipse this beauty. Value for money assured.

Dark Matter Spiced

Won over... Gifted to me so already a winner, I went in open minded and neutral (ish). Pleasantly surprised at how quickly I adjusted to it when I added ice. Good

Sip it if you must A bit too heavy for me and not as good value as the younger and cheaper expressions. I wanted it to be so much more. Ho hum for an average rum.

Appleton Estate Special Gold

Solid banker Quaffable when mixed or blended. A go to for a daquiri or cocktail. Not sure I would sip it. Perhaps over ice with soda.

Mount Gay Eclipse

Just about sippable but great mixer Happy to drink this when given the opportunity. Not my usual choice but pleasant nonetheless.

Myers's Original Dark

Bar tender staple Many a Planter’s Punch or rum cocktail used to be made with this in all the beach bars and hotels in JA (along with Wray Nephews overproof) 🤓. I am su

Kraken Black Spiced

A little sweet Just too much honey for my tastes otherwise a solid sup.

Sailor Jerry Spiced

Not very impressed Nice colour but too harsh to sip neat. Could improve with a soda water or mixer but spice finish is a tad chemical. Sorry 🥺

Cocktails and cake Not pleasant to sip or mix at all. The only safe place for this is as part of a combination of ingredients in either a cocktail or some kind of cake.

Captain Morgan Spiced

Used to, but no more. Great for budget booze ups. I remember this being quite new as a younger man and was taken in by the hype. Not any more.
