Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal

Awsome I can get this locally for $20 a ltr. and always have a bottle on hand. When people ask me what's a good light rum this is my recommendation.

El Dorado Special Reserve 15-year

A Treat Great rum I can't imagine not being part of my collection. It's a bit expensive for me but worth it when I want a treat.

El Dorado 12-year

Very Good as I would Expect Very nice but if you've tried the 15 year you can get a real application for what that extra 3 years does for the quality.

Good Cachaca To be honest I don't haven't had much Cachaca to compare this to but I do like it.

Great Bargain At about $13 on sale in my area this a surprisingly good rum.

Matusalem Gran Reserva 15-year

One of my favorites. The Solara method really makes this rum quite smooth. Smooth rum at a budget price.

Smoother Than Expected Very nice barrel aged flavor and smoothness for the money.

My Go To For Mixing Very good value and taste.

Pyrat XO Reserve

Orange Overtones To me the orange taste in this rum makes it like a different liquor all together. I like it but be prepared for a very different rum.

Whaler's Original Dark

Nice Dark Rum My other experience with rum this darkbis Gosling's, I would pick which ever is cheaper at the time. Both are nice.

Myers's Original Dark

kind of a staple for tropical drinks Very dark and unique flavor, I think it adds a signature taste to tropical drinks.

Centenario Anejo Especial

Very Nice Rum I found this at a small liquor store in my area but haven't found it since. It comes on sweet and finshes with a little alcohol bite but I really like

Mc Dowell’s Celebration

English Rum Not bad for the price but nothing special to me.

Good for Mixing I like this rum because of value as a mixer but at the same price point I prefer Cruzan.

Oronoco Fazenda Reserva

Cool Bottle I received this as a gift and really like it but for the price I'll take Plantation 3 Star all day.

Bacardi Superior

I'll drink it if it's all they have After spreading my wings trying different rums I'm mad at myself for drinking Bacardi forever.
