El Dorado 12-year

Excellent It's all subjective, but perfect level of sweetness for my palate - not at all too sweet. Great balance of mild spices, hints of fruit, and the right

El Dorado Special Reserve 15-year

Very Nice Rum This is quite nice - I don't know that it is a step up from the 12-year, but it is different enough to be interesting; less woody, spicier, a bit more

El Dorado 3-year

LOVE This Rum! I'm largely basing this rating as a comparison to other whites in the under $20.00 range - this one just does it for me. I find it outstanding in the

Hampden Estate Pure Single Jamaican Overproof

Fantastic Wow, this one is fantastic. Amazingly smooth for the ABV which really opens this up. You know it is Jamaican, but not in an overpowering way whatsoeve

Worthy Park 109

Crazy (Good) for the Price! Pretty much a home run for the price. Nose is reasonably light on the funk scale (but no doubt it is Jamaican), accompanied by a fruit sweetness, oak,

Hamilton White Stache

Very Good! This is a great white rum. Drinkable on its own in a pinch, certainly more complexity and depth due to the blend. A light sweetness, light tropical fr

Monymusk Special Reserve 10-year

Very Enjoyable Just enough funk to let you know it is Jamaican, not at all overpowering. More alcohol on the nose than I expected, but that disappears on the palate.

Appleton Estate Rare Casks 12-year

Very Nice! A nice experience, laid back. Some fruity sweetness, not too much. Nice wood flavors, vanilla, mild spices. Easy on the nose and palate. Smooth, very

Kaniche Perfeccion

Very Good Rum I like this one quite a bit! It is sweet, with some alcohol on the nose, but that seems to disappear in the mouth. Very nice spices; cinnamon, clove,

Great Mixing Rum This is one of my favorite light rums for mixing. Very crisp-feeling and clean-tasting. Mild flavor, but just enough to let you know it is still rum.

El Dorado 8-year

Quite Good I like this one a lot. Sweeter than the 12 but with a bit more tang, and lighter wood notes. It is pretty easy to drink; makes for a good sipper, with

Plantation Overproof O.F.T.D.

A Must Have, or At Least a Must Try! Very impressed. I'm not going to regurgitate what is on the label as far as the nose and taste, but I find it to be quite close to as described on the

Smith and Cross Traditional Jamaica Navy Strength

Love It! Excellent. Just the right amount of funk. I get fresh cut wood, light fruit/sweet, some alcohol, "BBQ", and something else I can't quite identify on t

Havana Club Cuban Smoky

Pleasure To Drink Definitely not the most complex rum on the planet, but it was a pleasantly surprising sipping experience. Hints of smoke and wood - not at all like I

Myrtle Bank 2010 Gold 10-year

Very Nice Rum Very nice rum! Not sure that it is worth the price (around $100.00 on the average), but it is a pretty good product. Cool bottle, though the cork is a

Denizen Merchants Reserve 8-year

An 8 for this 8 Year Great rum! Wonderful nose - floral, fruity, spicy with some Jamaica coming through, and you know it is there in the taste, but not funky. A bit medici

Rum Fire White Overproof

Funky Might Be An Understatement... Oh yeah, funky and powerful! Highly aromatic, with quite a bit of agricole character on the nose that gives way to the perhaps more "classic" funk of

Myrtle Bank Tiki Blend 10-year

An Interesting Rum! Undeniably Jamaican, but the funk is definitely dialed back. Lighter burn on the nose than you might expect at 50% ABV, and you do feel that warmth, y

Matusalem Platino

Excellent Mixing Rum! Great for the price. Like the synthetic cork vs. screw cap. Not the best bottle lip for pouring, but hey. I get very little on the nose except for a h

Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Gold

Interesting (Gold?) Rum! Quite funky on the nose (rotten fruit and vegetable), taste is totally different. Light-medium body, with some nice, light fruitiness, some bitterness

Devils Creek Distillery White Mountain

Certainly Doable Reminds me a bit of Mount Gay Eclipse. It's not bad. Interesting nose - I *think* I'm detecting those wine barrels used in the finishing. Very light w

Zafra Master Reserve 21

Not Bad, But Not as Good As I Had Expected Only giving this a 7. It's decent, but for 21 years old? I guess I expected a lot more, especially given the hype. There are a lot of rums less than t

Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva

Worth Trying! This is a good rum. Sweet, and smooth. Nice flavors, a fair amount of wood, lightly smoky, hints to chocolate, toffee, carmel, vanilla. Almost no burn

Denizen Aged White

Worth The Price! A very nice rum with some heat. Works well as a mixer and does nicely in my favorite, the Daiquiri. Just enough Jamaican funk to be interesting - thou

Gosling's Black Seal

Good For Mixing Not intended for sipping, though you could do worse. Some nice notes of citrus, for me orange in particular, and baking spices, lightly sweet. Very pl

Hard to Beat the Price This is $9.00 in my area - great mixing rum for sure. Makes a surprisingly decent Daiquiri. I get hints of vanilla and coconut, light sweetness. I don

Barbancourt 5 Star Reserve Especiale 8-year

Very Nice! I really like this one, definitely more mature than the 4-year sibling. Has that same sweetness as the younger one, mild spice, very little alcohol bu

Mount Gay Eclipse Black

A Decent Rum, Glad I Found It! Not bad! Not great, but not bad! Even with the extra ABV, I found this to be reasonably smooth, nice warmth with just a bit of burn. A decent amount o

Barbancourt White

Quite Interesting! I find this rum to be rather interesting. On the nose, grassy and herbaceous notes dominate, but accompanied by a mild fruity sweetness. The taste is

Plantation Xaymaca Special Dry

I Like It! Was a bit rough around the edges at first, but as I spent more time with this one, I've come to like it a decent bit. I think it might be a good candi

Good! I like it! Yes, you know it is Jamaican, but not overly funky. Nice notes of pineapple and baking spice on the nose and palate. Sweet but not overdone

Decent! Not bad for sipping and mixing, certainly better than Plantation 3 Year, though I find some similarity. Definite presence of molasses, and I get hints

Flor de Caña Extra Dry 4

Very Nice Light Rum Light and refreshing! Citrusy and mildly sweet on the nose with a bit of alcohol, carries into the taste. Nothing complex, a bit warm going down, but

Great For The Price, Great for Mixing This is a reasonably smooth, light to light-medium body. Some vanilla tone, and lightly sweet, with a touch of baking spice and mild citrus notes. Wor

Real McCoy White Single Blended 3-year

Very Solid Light Rum Decent flavor, with hints of vanilla and caramel, very light fruit. Fairly dry, a bit of heat and some bitterness, but fully tolerable. Not overly com

Hamilton Jamaican Pot Still Black

Same as the Gold? Not Bad. Like the gold version, quite funky on the nose (rotten fruit and vegetable), and taste is totally different. A bit of that funk carries over in a ligh

Doctor Bird Pot Still

Worth The Price Wavered between 7 and 8, went with 7 (solid). It's quite good, though not especially complex or layered (for me anyway). Definitely worth the price. B

Clement VSOP 4-year

Very Nice! Very interesting - for me this one has qualities of bourbon, scotch, and rum! On the nose, I get very light agricole, but it really smells like a good

Plantation Barbados 5-year

Very Good I do like this one. Good flavors, sweet (but not a total sugar-bomb), hints of the cognac finish come through nicely. Better than any other Barbados r

Clement Blanc 40

Not Bad Definitely agricole on the noise and palate! Vegetal. But once you get beyond that, there is more going on. Definitely something fruity in there, but

Appleton Estate Signature Blend

Decent Intro Jamaican Rum I think this is a good rum to introduce new comers to Jamaican rum. You know it's Jamaican from the nose and taste, but it is quite mild on the flavor

Myers's Platinum White

It Could Be Worse! And it could be better. More exciting than some whites, with a bit of funk, but not a tremendous amount. Some sweetness and light spice notes, mild bu

Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal

Barely OK For Me I know a lot of folks really adore this rum, so I might be in the minority here.... Unfortunately, I find it quite molasses-dominant in both the nose

El Dorado 5-year

I'll keep it for mixing... I do really like El Dorado in general, but this is my least favorite of the core lineup. It's reasonably tasty, not too harsh (some minor burn), but t

Barbancourt 3 Star 4-year

Not Fantastic, But Not Bad! It's quite doable. A bit sweet, rough around the edges with some alcohol burn and tingle. Nice overall taste with hints of being an "agricole" rum (th

A Good Mixer, Especially for the Price Not as smooth as the Cristal, but definitely a different experience. Some alcohol on the nose and taste, a bit of burn. Colorful on the nose, I get mo

Myers's Original Dark

Good Mixer, Not Much Else More of that Jamaican funk on the nose than the Platinum version, but similar in taste in that regard. A bit of burn, tastes of lightly burnt brown su

Real McCoy Single Blended 5-year

Meh Yeah, not really impressed, it'd do in a pinch, but this is definitely a rum for mixing, not sipping. Not nearly as good as some other 5 year rums lik

Plantation XO 20th Anniversary

Disappointing Pretty boring really. A light nose, with some florality. Light-bodied, with a taste that has little character beyond some sweetness, and a mild bitter
