Origenes Don Pancho Reserva Especial 18-year

Rich Love the long rich flavor with just the right amount of wood coming through.

Papas Pilar Dark 24-year

phenomonal Deliciously rich. Heavy with notes of caramel, heavy maple palate,butterscotch, vanilla, spice, and wood. Finishing with a slight licorice taste as it

Old Monk XXX 7-year

Artificially Rich? Medium-bodied, heavy over dramatized "rum" flavor. Easy drinking

Havana Club Selección de Maestros

Best I've ever had Glad a friend smuggled some in from England. This stuff was pure, clean and simply wonderful.

Clement Cuvee Homere 6-year

A great find for the night Light aroma of grass and green apple with a hint of wood. Light body, dry, full wood flavor. Little burn with a fruity aftertaste. Quite lovely.

Kirk and Sweeney 18-year

The Middle Child Mmm... Burnt sugar, brown butter and caramel right away. Drifting away quickly as well and leaving a semi-dry briny finish.

Oronoco Fazenda Reserva

All Gone Smooth as velvet but oh so limited. Bring back production!

Mount Gay XO Extra Old

The oldest distillery For being the oldest rum distillery still standing, wow do they know how to make a great rum. Buttery, spicy and semi-dry blending into smooth again,

The Best Brugal Having had a multitude of Brugal's offerings, I must say Brugal 1888 is hands down the best I've ever had from Brugal. The sherry cask finish gives it

Angostura 1824 12-year

Greatly Surprised Love this stuff, totally blew my mind once I got a change to taste it. This is what Angostura should taste like...Always

Pyrat Cask 1623

23 years of amazing Rich flavor, nice spice and orange accents and pure decadence in a glass.

Rum Jumbie Liqueur

Jumbie! Love this stuff. The tropical flavor is amazing. The liqueur isn't overly sweet or heavy but is just right for sipping straight. Delicious!

Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Worth the wait I have been wanting to try this rum since it hit the market. Found a bottle today at my local liquor store and I must say it is superb.

Finally! Smooth yet with good burn. You can really taste the wood.

Cedar Ridge Dark

Delicious Iowa Rum Being a native I'm glad to see that someone produced a rum we can be proud of. For a "dark" rum it is rather light but still has good flavor for a sma

Clement Creole Shrubb Liqueur D’Orange

Step Away Grand Marnier As a "shrub" in the vintage sense rather than the new vinegar syrups of today, this stuff is delicious. Great orange flavor, not heavy sugared or cloy

Plantation XO 20th Anniversary (old bottle)

Cognac of Rums A great sipper with definitive sugar cane flavor "grassy notes"

Barbancourt Estate Reserve 15-year

The Family's Best Dry, delicious and grassy. Just what a superb agricole should be

Papas Pilar Blonde 3-year

Complex Full bodied and interesting as all get out. Tons of pleasant flavors, not harsh by any means. Surprising to say the least.

Kirk and Sweeney 12-year

finally in my area After what seemed like an eternity, I had the great pleasure to finally get my hands on a bottle of Kirk & Sweeney. Packaging alone suggests it's gonn

Bambarra Reserve 8-year

Nice Surprise Just received a bottle from a friend on vacation and I must say I'm delightfully surprised. Good burn, nice body and sugar level/ butter note. A desce

Kilo Kai Spiced

The Best Spiced Rum For a spiced rum I was very hesitant, as I don't find much character in spiced rums. But Kilo Kai was smooth, nicely spiced and easy on its own. Hands

Pyrat XO Reserve

My favorite Love this rum, definitely my favorite everyday drinker. Lover the sweetness, floral and smooth taste. The spice and orange undertones taste amazing as

El Dorado Special Reserve 15-year

My first aged rum This was the first aged rum I ever laid my lips on, it was dry, spicy and slightly sweet. The richness of the demerara sugar gave this rum a great dep

Zaya Gran Reserva 12-year

RICH Zaya is a rum I love to go to when I want richness with a hint of spice and nothing more. Not much complexity but still a great rum on it's own. In co

Pampero Aniversario Reserva Exclusiva

Great dark rum A rich flavorful dark rum that's easy drinking. Recommend trying it in the "El Ritual," the traditional drink of Venezuela.

Dos Maderas PX 5+5

Mmm... Sherry Grabbed a bottle after I noticed I quite like a sherried scotch. How could a sherry-casket rum not be better? Love the mouth feel.

Cruzan Single Barrel

Ooo, tannins Tannic and vegetal. A great cocktail primer.

Rhum JM VSOP 4-year

Aged agricole One of the best agricoles I've ever had. Honey, fresh grass, spice and a little heat, finishing slightly dry.

Ron Zacapa Centenario 23

Solera rum Light but distinct. Lovely on its own but totally lost in a cocktail.

Barbancourt 5 Star Reserve Especiale 8-year

A great mixing aged agricole Full honey flavor, grass notes and a nice dryness. Light an floral with hints of tannins and wood. Try this in rum cocktails you wanna throw an "islan

Montecristo 12-year

My First Bajan rum This blew me away the first time I had it. Good spice, descent body. Lots of character and finishes nicely.

Great "craft" light rum Smooth and easy drinking without that "weird" Bacardi taste. Makes sense since it's from Don Q.

RL Seale ABV 43 10-year

R.L. Seale's Finest Outside of Mount Gay Extra Old this is what Bajan run should taste like. Slightly dry comparatively but that's what makes it a great choice as well.

Flor de Caña 18-year

good juice smooth. Good wood and light flavor with a hint of caramel finishing spicy and semi-"hot".

Santa Teresa 1796

Finally! Always wanted to try this one since I discovered a palate for rum. After nearly a decade got a chance to enjoy some. As with many solera-aged rums the

Diplomatico Reserva

Great Mixer Great in a cocktail. Complex, yet not as much as Exclusiva. Works superbly in a mixed drink.

Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal

great light rum Always a solid choice for a light rum. Plantation makes some amazing runs great for mixing and this is no exception.

Starter Cachaca A good baseline cachaca to get one started down the interesting road that is sugarcane spirit.

Plantation Trinidad Original Dark Overproof

A good mixable ovenproof This rum work great in cocktails without overpowering and still adding needed depth. Great in a coffee cocktail.

Cruzan Clipper 120

Full proof and then some Not quite 151 but that's a good thing. Good palate with a backbone to hold up to most cocktails.

Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

Full on cane syrup A very interesting rum as one finds. Starting with cane juice aged in bourbon casks and finished in cognac barrels. Adding an interesting character vi

English Harbour 5-year

Smooth 5 year For a five year aged rum I was quite surprised. It was smooth with a hint of spice; woody and semi-tannic with good legs and nice body. Definitely one

Ron Del Barrilito 3 Star

Now this is Puerto Rican rum! Love this stuff. Way better than Bacardi Solera or possibly Bacardi 8 for that matter. Just a finer produced product all around.

Flor de Caña 12-year

A great Nica rum Expanding from the Grand Reserve, this mid-level aged rum offers a little more complexity and richness.

Bananas This was my second introduction into aged rum and still a favorite. Great with coke, AMAZING in cocktails, and a the only Bacardi rum I'll drink.

Smith and Cross Traditional Jamaica Navy Strength

A kick in the pants Navy strength rum it IS. This mammoth of a rum has so much esters there isn't a cocktail out there that will tame it. The flavor will always shine thr

Cruzan Black Strap

Molasses A great dark rum made from blackstrap molasses. Rich, dark and slightly cloying.

Appleton Estate Extra 12-year

Jamaican, esters For a high-ester rum, this is delicious. I'm sure the 12 years helped tone them down a bit, but still a true Jamaican rum which is nice and approachab

Angostura 7-year

A great baseline aged rum The first choice in an introduction to aged rum. Smooth with a bit of spice and a good finish.

Barcelo Imperial

D.R.'s finest Best Dominican rum I've had so far. Nutty, smooth, rich and lingering.

Nice light cachaca Nice light flavor, great for mixing.

Gosling's Black Seal

A Great Dark Rum A great dark rum for cocktails. Brings everything up a notch just by using instead of "regular" dark rum.

Angostura 1919 8-year

Aged and light Light flavor for an aged rum. For an 8 year old rum I expected more. Still smooth and workable.

Sailor Jerry Spiced

92 Proof Heavy vanilla flavor with a hint of cinnamon.

Don Q Gran Anejo

Best Don Q Good color but a little light on the palate, which goes to figure, it being a Peurto Rican rum and all. Smooth, good flavor but lacking in terms of de

Taylor’s Velvet Falernum

Tiki syrup Almonds, lime zest and spices? What doesn't scream tiki? A great mixer for cocktails, not over powering like many cordials get to be. Just real workab

Flor de Caña Extra Lite 4

Great light rum A great dry light rum for making cocktails even better.

Horchata cream, yes please For a cream liqueur I found Rum Chata to be smooth and light unlike most cream liqueurs that tend to be heavy, thick and overly viscous. The flavor wa

Tommy Bahama White Sands

Light Barbados Loved this stuff once it came it. Very mixable. Disappointed to see it discontinued.

Rogue Hazelnut Spice

Clean Flavor For a flavored rum I was quite surprised to find how little sugar they used to "add" flavor. I expected something akin to Frangelico but got a much cl

Atlantico Private Cask

Good, but not great Had to try this stuff with all the buzz going around when it released. But I found it lacking. Good drinkable rum but no distinction.

Still my favorite Bacardi Limon was the first citrus rum I had ever had. I fell in love right off the bat. Love the hint of spicyness and the heavy citrus flavor.

Old recipe was the best Good agricole nose and flavor. Awesome in the Between the Sheets cocktail.

Clement VSOP 4-year

Holy Heat! I don't usually drink a 4 year old gold r(h)um but when I do I choose Clement. Light oak taste, definitive "heat"(alcohol taste), mild fruit with a hi

Havana Club 7-year

Pure Cuban Decent legs, good tropical aroma with some heat coming through. Soft and semi-smooth on the palate with some wood to finish.

Descent Mixer Descent mixer, not enough character to stand alone but definitely a great addition to any cocktail.

Appleton Estate Reserve

Good but not Great Better than V/X but not nearly as refined as Extra. Descent flavor for a blend of 40 rums but not as deep and rich as I'd prefer.

Matusalem Gran Reserva 18-year

Still lacking As I was not fond of Matusalem Gran Reserva 15, I found this step up and thought I'd give it s try. Yes, there is more character. Yes, it is more refi

Gosling's Family Reserve Old

Burnt Sugar A nice rich dark rum, with a heavy burnt sugar aroma and taste. For the price it is smooth but not characteristic of anything, just burnt sugar.

Appleton Estate Reserve 8-year

A better VX A good baseline aged Jamaican rum. Purportedly a blend of 40 rums with the youngest being an 8 year. Slightly aggressive with that Jamaican funk.

Mount Gay Black Barrel

Charred Bourbon Barrel aging This stuff was peculiar. Light and young on the initial taste, very akin to Mount Gay Eclipse. Then here comes the spice and dryness from the Bourbon

Porfidio Single Barrel Anejo

Single Cane Anejo Depending how you read it this rum can either be single cane or single barrel. For a rum distillers from fresh pressed sugar cane juice it retains tha

Best baseline gold Bacardi Superior vs Bacardi Gold. I'll choose Gold every time. A little more richness and less processed flavor in my opinion.

Pusser's British Navy Blue Label ABV40 3-year

Not My Cup of Tea For being a heavy Navy rum I assumed I would love this. But the more I sipped the less I liked. I may just have to keep this for The Painkiller Cockta

Negrita Bardinet Signature Dark 2-year

En Fuego! As the decription says "On Fire," This rum is dark in color but not on the palate with a strong alcoholic burn. Not much body but a dark burner none t
