Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

A must for any Man Cave. This rum has an absolutely fantastic taste both in the mouth and aftertaste. It's aroma is heavenly. A must for anyone who enjoys a true rum.

Gosling's Family Reserve Old

Such a sophisticated rum. Like the label and webpage says, this is indeed a very well defined rum. Wonderful flavor and aroma.Everyone needs to try this one. It was especially

Kirk and Sweeney 12-year

Brotherly Love Served over a chunk of iceberg this is hands down the best rum I have sipped on. Beautiful full flavour and a unique decadent aroma.

Captain Morgan Private Stock

Can I have me sipper Cap'n? This is what I like to sip on. Straight up or on a few ice berg chunks. Smooth and mellow.

Pyrat XO Reserve

Wow!! What an exceptional rum! When I think of a nice rum to serve straight up, it has to be Pyrat XO. Hands Down the finest sipper to date. Why the NLC is no longer offering this f

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

True to the legends. I love this rum. It has been hard to find in Canada but with good friends state side I get this as a wonderful Christmas gift. A very fine flavour lik

Pusser's British Navy Blue Label 3-year

My standard for comparison. I compare all the rums I drink against Pusser's. I love this rum and it hosts so many memories. Cheers!

Captain Morgan Black Spiced

A party favorite for any occasion! This grog is good straight up, on some iceberg chunks and with cola. Some good me lovelies!

Sailor Jerry Spiced

A Great Spiced Rum. You cannot go wrong with a bottle of Sailor Jerry. Sweet, nice spice, and a down right good rum.

Flor de Caña 18-year

Very nicely aged. Nice over ice with a splash of water. Iceberg ice and spring water.

The Best Bacardi I have had to date. A complex, but not expensive, rum that will please all who try it.

Cruzan Single Barrel

A nice rum indeed. Spirited. A unique flavour and aroma that is defined and pleasing.

English Harbour 5-year

Another favorite. My favorite Antigua rum. A wonderful dark and full flavoured rum that bodes well alone or with cola.

Kraken Black Spiced

Yummy Squid Ink! This is one of my favorites. Keeps me warm on snowy nights and makes for great company during the holidays. https://www.facebook.com/GloversHarbour

Captain Morgan 1671

The history of a good grog! This rum has such a unique flavour to me. Serve it with cola and some bergy bits and a fine refreshing drink is had. Hearty, sincere, and very tasty.

Captain Morgan Dark

My OTHER standard. When not having spiced rum this is usually my choice. The Captain has always been there for a memoriable cold drink with great friends and family.

Mount Gay 1703 Master Select

Nice! To be enjoyed in the sun under an umbrella with lots of sand about. pour over ice and enjoy the view.

George Street Spiced

A very nice spiced rum. This is a mix of caribbean rums and those that put it together did a wonderful job doing it. I totally enjoyed it with cola and some local iceberg. Ra

Flor de Caña 12-year

A nice rum on a hot day. I expected a bit more, but was not unimpressed. Indeed a nice rum. I must try some of the others,

Havana Club Anejo Reserva

My Favorite Cuba Rum. Another wonderful rum to host a garden party with. Bring on the tropical drinks or a nice rum and cola. Rich tones add flavour to any drink needing ru

Diplomatico Reserva

A must for any stocked shelf. I decided to try a new rum. This stood out and I am so glad I tried it. A defined and distinctive flavour. Every well stocked shelf should have a bott

JD Shore Reserve 5-year

Unique. I had an opportunity to try this rum and it was not bad at all. It had a unique aroma and was different both straight up and mixed.

Pina Colada necessity! On the rocks will be the true test of a rum... many must remain there. With cola more will be enjoyed... the run of the mills. However when a tropic

Lemon Hart Navy Spiced

A typical Navy Rum. An inexpensive and full bodied navy rum. Great for entertaining on a hot Summer day. Lots of Iceberg bits for ice will add to the ambiance.

Cabot Tower 100 Proof

Hardcore! A stiff Demerara that needs a stiff fortitude. Not for the typical hangashore!!

Newfoundland Screech

Arrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhh! This rum can knock yer socks off! Be careful landlovers, she can bring up quite a gail!

Old Sam Rhum Demerara

A decent Demerara. Not my usual drink but a decent drink with cola. Sometimes a little thick on the glass edge and stomach.

A decent Navy Rum. A decent, affordable navy rum with distinct flavors and character. Not a Pusser's or related Navy Rum but easily found in Canada.

A Lovely swig of the Bahamas I had to buy a bottle when there to add something to our trip.

John Watling's Buena Vista

Different. While cruising we decided to find our way to the Waitling's distillery. Decided to try the selection at the bar. This was the better of the three offe

Lamb's Palm Breeze

A standard for ratings. This rum is an OK rum, certainly not a bad rum. Best to drink it with cola and ice. We do need something to compare other rums against. A run of the m

Lamb's Black Sheep Spiced

Like a Black Sheep. This will be either one you like or you do not. I prefer it with cola or in a mixed drink.

Ironworks Bluenose Black

A Dark Traditional. Not for me. I was expecting much more from this rum. The spice combination did not please my pallet. Tried it straight up and mixed. Maybe a newer batch in the fu

John Watling's Pale

Too fresh, too much alcohol - yeast taste. I was hoping for much more. Did not find it. Maybe in time.

John Watling's Amber

Just OK. Maybe I missed something with all the rave reviews I read, but it was just OK. Maybe in a mixed drink? Hard alcohol taste to me.

A flavorless white rum, mix only. I have not found a nice white rum. They tend to just give me heartburn. If given a choice I drink whisky over this white rum.
