Brinley Gold Shipwreck Coconut

Coconut Blast! When it comes to rum, it seems you get what you pay for and coconut rum is no different. This rum came in at a higher cost ($50CAD) but it was worth i

Dictador Solera Distillery Icon Reserve 20-year

Abuelo Gran Reserva 12-year

This is my kind of rum ($57CAD) It’s dark and smells a bit spicy. Which didn’t seem to show up on the palate the first couple sips. There’s a lot to unpack in this rum. Th

El Dorado Special Reserve 15-year

I love this rum El dorado 12 was my gateway rum so I was excited to see the 15 on sale. ($40 CAD, usually around $53) Smells sweet like the 12 but less alcohol and m

El Dorado 2006 Versailles Single Still 12-year

Top Notch! ($69CAD) This was my first purchase of the three 2006 single still releases, and it's what convinced me to get the other two. I'm a big fan of ED so I

Clement Canne Bleue

Refreshing! (£38.50) Picked this one up when I was in London. Smells like a young Agricole. Lots of grassy, vegetal, buttery goodness. The taste is truly intrigu

El Dorado 2006 Port Mourant Single Still

Better than the 12 & 15 ($65CAD) This one out of the three 2006 releases smells the most of fruit. Cherries specifically. It reminds me of Abuelo 12 quite a bit. That cherry

Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

Something Different $70 CAD Smells a bit fruity. A lot going on for flavours, definitely some coconut. Very little alcohol burn and a bit thinner than the my other rums.

Plantation Pineapple Stiggin's Fancy

Mmhmm. Yep, that’s nice. ($47 CAD) I was excited to try this as I really enjoyed the 20th anniversary bottle from Plantation. It’s a nice amber colour in the glass. It smel

Barbancourt Estate Reserve 15-year

If you like the 8 year, get this! ($63CAD) 43%ABV - I don’t usually use the box in the picture but this box is too great to exclude. Color is acorn brown, quite a bit darker than the

El Dorado 2006 Single Still Enmore 12-year

Sign me up! ($38 CAD) Well here we go. One rum I have looked forward to for a long time. It’s got a healthy amount of funk on the nose, as well as some obvious he

Santa Teresa 1796

Oh that's nice Flavour has all kinds of oaky sweetness to it. Second sip gives me distinct ripe cherries. Third sip gives a ton of raisins and sweetness. Fourth sip

If it wasn't for the faulty cork... ($48) This one I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. Popping the cork, I know I’m going to love it. It smells sweet of the Brugal floral note

Abuelo Oloroso Sherry Cask 15-year

Demands your attention ($110CAD) Abuelo 12 was one of my favourite rums and I decided to give the more expensive Finish Collection a go for a special occasion. The box and b

That Boutique-y Rum Company Engenhos Do Norte 7-year

Amazing new flavours 48.8% ABV. Bit harsh on the nose with the higher ABV. Strong ripe cherries though with raisins and nuts following. The aroma is truly amazing. Wow

Cuate Anejo Reserva Belize Master Blend

Germany, Who Would've Known? Finding rum from a German company, I would never have guessed. Hard to find some of the details on this. I'm not sure if the 06 is years aged or just

Baron Samedi Spiced

Tasty ($34CAD) This one is a great choice as far as spiced rum goes. Vanilla, spices, lots of brown sugar. It's quite sweet but perfect for the holiday seas

Appleton Estate Rare Blend 12-year

Barbancourt 5 Star Reserve Especiale 8-year

Does not disappoint $40CAD) Barbancourt has been on my list for a while. Something about the brand has enticed me; not sure if it’s the simplistic label and bottles or th

Unique $47 CAD Got this one on a recommendation for ‘something different’ and it doesn’t disappoint in the category of unique. Smells of sweet, warm vanilla.

Clement VSOP 4-year

Bourbon kinda rhum ($49CAD) Woa. Bourbon? Nope, this is rhum Agricole from Martinique. Doesn’t smell too much like rum. It doesn’t taste like any of the rum I’ve had bef

Top Marks ($36CAD) This is one of the new bottles of the 12 year and I have to comment on the bottle itself. I’ve never been so pumped about a rum before actual

Matusalem Gran Reserva 15-year

Didn't Last Long The smell reminds me of Dzama vanilla. It is definitely a thinner rum with a bit of that flavour also present in dzama. Vanilla? Warm vanilla yes. Not

Trois Rivieres Cuvee du Moulin 3-year

Sipper's Delight £47.45 Picked this one up while I was in London. On the nose there’s a bit of grassy molasses. Almost a bit of pineapple or mango on the nose as well

El Dorado 8-year

Just like the 12 ($33CAD) Finally got around to getting some younger El Dorados. Wanted to give it a shot because I seem to love everything I’ve had from ED so far.

Doorly's XO 6-year

Good but lacking excitement I was excited to give this reputable brand a try. I’m a bit choked that there is no age statement or even an age range, as my idea of this distillery

Myers's Original Dark

Nice to sip, nicer to mix ($33CAD) It’s a very dark spirit with a nice amber color. The smell is that of a Jamaican pot stilled rum with a ton of sweetness. On the taste side,

El Dorado 12-year

Great First Rum Smells of caramel, tastes quite sweet. Not a bad bite by any means, especially at the price point. Flavour is one dimensional but it’s definitely tast

Zaya Grande Reserva 16-year

Something a Little Different Smells sweet, tastes... different. There’s something that I can’t put my finger on. Sweet, maybe apple or spice almost? Anyway it’s got a bit of a bit

Ron Zacapa 23 Solera

Black Tot Finest Carribean 5-year

First Navy Rum Smells of warm carmel with a hint of pepper. Some fresh fruit on the nose as well. It's a weird thing, to taste the upfront Demerara rum with some B

Chairman's The Forgotten Cask 6-11 Years

That's more like it Much better than the Chairman's original 4-6 year, though quite a bit more pricey. At first it seems a bit lacklustre but the last sip leaves you want

Pyrat XO Reserve

Something different Loads of orange in the flavour and quite a bit of sweetness too. Not too sure how I feel about it as a “rum”. If it wasn’t seemingly orange additives

Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal

More of a mixer This filtered rum only smells slightly similar to the Stiggin fancy. But still you can tell from the smell that it is a Plantation rum. On the tongue

Legendario Ron Dorado

Pricey Cuban ($43CAD) Light and flowery. Similar to some Dominican rums I have tried. (Brugal, though not as brutal-y) Can easily sip straight and it doesn’t disap

El Dorado 3-year

Meh as a sipper ($25CAD) - Got this one to make some vanilla extract but figured I'd give it a shot straight up. Not too much going on aroma-wise; A bit of butterscot

Bundaberg Reserve

Australian Rum Light amber color, and easy on the nose. Smells like oak and molasses, nothing too crazy. Taste is a solid clean rum. There’s something that’s just

Chairman's Reserve 4-6 Years

...meh $42CAD Smells sweet which is deceiving. Strong bourbon-ish oak flavours. The finish goes on and on with lots of light notes coming out- orange maybe?

Flor de Caña 12-year

Tasty, but not quite great It’s sugar water aged in oak barrels. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great baseline but I would prefer something with more complexity to it. Faint smell o

Angostura 5-year

Good to know ($30CAD) I wanted to have a mixing option for some cocktails and also wanted to try this neat as the Angostura 7 year was delicious. On its own, the

Royal Jamaican Spiced

Good rum, bad bottling Tons of vanilla and a tad other spices to bring out the party. Tastes a lot closer to 40% than the other spiced rums. Very festive and still rum tasti

Chairman's Reserve Spiced

Too sweet, even for me! Strong cola and anise flavours. Smooth as hell. So much cola it’s almost like Bubblegum flavours… crazy that it’s still labelled as 40%. Can’t tell I’

In a pinch... It’s got the Jamaican fun flavour but that’s where the fun stops. Will do in a pinch is how I would describe this one.

Hammock Bay Coconut

Don't do it 21%ABV. It’s quite coconut-y but the unfriendly spirit taste comes in rather quickly. Especially for such a low ABV, it’s much too harsh. Blue chair &
