Appleton Estate Reserve 8-year

Excellent I tried this alongside of the Bacardi 8. Both have that hint of molasses that I like, but this one is more spicy or peppery - it has some burn. It c

Appleton Estate Rare Casks 12-year

A favourite Appleton is looking to become my goto for sipping rum. To me this one is virtually indistinguishable from the 8 year, so probably won't buy it agai

Appleton Estate Signature

re-evaluate I'll bump this one up on my personal list after broadening my Jamaican horizons. While not as robust as the 8 year, the funk and spicy burn is still

Flor de Caña Gran Reserva 7-year

Here we go... Now this one I like. This is my first from this maker, and it's a keeper. Quite enjoyable and smooth neat, and I would consider it a waste to dilute

Wray & Nephew White Overproof

High test funk This is a Jamaican flavour bomb. As others have said, this is not for sipping - it's akin to a concentrate and more overpowering than enjoyable.

Newfoundland Screech

Certainly unique This was the first rum I bought, because it was the cheapest. I've tried several others since, but I still come back to this. It's got a bit of that

Havana Club 7-year

Surprised Based on descriptions of tobacco and leather, and my bad experience with a similar rum, I was hesitant with this one. It was on sale, however, and if

Gosling's Black Seal

Different I think this stuff is to rum what Guinness is to beer - something different, and not for everyone. It's not terribly good neat, but is nice in gi

Coruba Original

Good stuff Unmistakably Jamaican, which I've come to enjoy. It's similar to the basic Appleton signature blend, with perhaps a bit more of a molasses hint.

Bacardi Reserva Ocho Rare Gold 8-year

Decent I'm posting these mostly so that I know what to buy again and what to avoid. This is the latest in my adventure to try what's on sale for the month.

Captain Morgan Deluxe Dark

not bad, eh? A slight step above the regular Cp'n Morgan Dark, and what I'd likely keep on hand for cheap sipping rum, as I'm a fan of molasses smell and taste.

Angostura 7-year

The value is, perhaps, not there It's not bad, but not quite a flavour profile that I can get into. If it were cheaper, it would make the list, but it's just a bit much for me abov

El Dorado 5-year

Ok, but... If I was given this blindfolded I might mistake it for some sort of brandy. It's smooth enough, but a bit on the sweeter side - I'm not a sugar eater

Flor de Caña Añejo Clásico 5-year

Rough around the edges Drinkable, though rougher than the 7 year. I found it pretty bland, actually. There's nothing wrong with it - I've just a preference for Jamaican

Capital K Distillery Tall Grass White Rhumb Molasses

Capital Rum From the website: "Did you know that in Canada to call something Rum it must be aged for a year? Well we didn't want to wait a year, so we're introdu

Brugal Añejo Superior 5-year

Dull Smooth and easy to sip, but with a dull flavour that says "Why bother?". Don't get me wrong, there's nothing remotely offensive about it, but if yo

Flor de Caña 12-year

Unimpressed I think I preferred the 7 year one. Bought this one on sale and even for a few bucks off it's not worth paying above what the 7 cost. It really fall

eh... My father used to drink this, I think because it was cheap. It left me disappointed. It's like the cheap vodka of rum - burns and lacks in charact

Lemon Hart Original 1804

Rack grade rum It's similar to any of the cheaper (non Bacardi/Morgan) rums. Reminds me of Lambs Navy, if anything. It's hard to stand out in the sub $30 bottle ra

Mount Gay Eclipse

General purpose Decent general purpose one with nothing much to distinguish it from other $20-$30 bottles. It's still a step above Morgan or Lambs, I think, though j

Captain Morgan Dark

Mixer Good for mixing, or for adding to home made ice cream to keep it from freezing solid. I like molasses and this has the taste of it, so there's that,

English Harbour 5-year

Not really my style I'm not sure what it is, but it's not quite what I like. I think I'm becoming more of an Appleton guy, with most else just seeming to be somewhat fla

Chic Choc Spiced

Minty This is another sweet/spicy one. It has hints of mint or wintergreen in it, rather than the usual pumpkin pie blend of other spiced rums. It makes m

Sailor Jerry Spiced

Spicy In my quest to try all things rum and on sale I picked up some of this. Firstly I'm on a low carb diet, so added sugar takes this off of my list, b

Vanilla Extract Seriously - if you love vanilla, you'll love this. I expect it would work in root beer or on ice cream, but straight up it's a sweet vanilla bomb.

Plantation Xaymaca Special Dry

Not the greatest I'm a fan of Jamaican rum, and when a friend offered to pick me up a bottle in his travels I asked for something I could not get locally, and he found

Old Port Deluxe

simply ghastly This is my new #1 (out of 10) rum. If you like the Bacardi spiced, then you might like this vanilla bomb. Folks who say this tastes like it was sto

Matusalem Gran Reserva 15-year

Boot leather Purchased in my quest to buy whatever is on sale. It's certainly flavourful, but it hits pretty hard with what I'd call a tanned leather character
