Cuba libre el dorado 21-Year

Amazing while it lasted No longer in production; if you had it, be proud. If you still have it, preserve it and enjoy thoroughly.

Pyrat Cask 1623

Smooth and sweet Too expensive but nonetheless great rum. Smooth, sweet, and mild with a flavor that lasts.

St. Augustine 2

Lucky to have tried it I was lucky enough to enjoy this while in St Augustine in October of 2015. It had a complex bouquet of tart and bright flavors, but had a signific

Kirk and Sweeney 18-Year

Smooth and sweet Smooth that finished sweet. Mild complexity. Great aroma. Good sipper for beginners.

Stolen Coffee & Cigarettes

Smokey sweet My favorite less expensive rum... such a great taste that is smokey, bitter, and sweet with a bite all in a bottle. It's a solid "go to" for any rum d

Brinley Gold Shipwreck Spiced

Nice spice Nice alternative to other spiced rums; it's slightly more syrupy than most so the consistency is different. Great in more complex rum cocktails.

Plantation Barbados 5-Year

Solid choice A lot of flavors are in every sip of this rum. I was surprised with how well blended the notes are in an inexpensive bottle. It's great for mixing and

Blue Chair Bay Coconut Spiced

Good idea Spiced or coconut? Both! Pretty sweet when you drink it out of a coconut. Good concept and a great crowd pleaser.

Surprisingly great I had such low expectations that I was blown away. Solid rum for most drinks. Straight up with a orange and sugar candy is a sweet summer drink.

Myers's Original Dark

The standard for dark The standard for the industry. Great as a floater is most mixed drinks and stand alone in a dark and stormy. Try it with cola too.

Key West First Legal

Cheers to key west Awesome distillery on the island. Take a tour and try some! A solid rum for any drink. You won't be sorry.

Kraken Black Spiced

Straight up or mixed Cool bottle, cooler rum. Great with ginger or cola. Also good straight up. One of the better inexpensive darks.

Strangely great Stick with me on this.... Really sweet and tasty rum that I love for sipping. Too sweet to compliment a cigar but awesome straight up in the warm w

Pyrat XO Reserve

Inexpensive sipper A solid sipping rum that won't break your bank. Compliments most mild to medium cigars.

Calico Jack Coconut

Rivals Cruzan The mainland American Cruzan. Tasty product. You will not be disappointed.

Good alternative People like the Cruzan name due to their flavored rums for mixing; this is a great way to use the Cruzan product for alternative party drinks like rum

Parrot Bay Coconut

Crowd pleaser Great crowd pleaser. This is a nice twist on a classic rum and cola. There is a 100 proof too, but I have not seen it in a few years.

Blackwell Black Gold Special Reserve

Dark and stormy Good taste but best in a dark and stormy! Not so great straight up.

Gosling's Black Seal

Easily accessible You can get it in most stores which is nice. Great in a Mai Tai.

Cruzan Pineapple

A better choice One of the better pineapple rums, really goes great with anything coconut. You know.....keeping it tropical.

Other options There are better coconut flavored rums out there, but this one is pretty smooth; probably more than most.

Punch? Awesome for rum punch. Cruzan has so many good flavors that make them easy to mix.

Should be better It's good but I expected more from this brand. Maybe I drank too much of it on vacation in the DR. It just seemed a bit cheap or like a short cut rum.

Captain Morgan Cannon Blast

Fruit loops or fruity pebbles A fun shot that leaves everyone guessing what fruity cereal it tastes like. More so, a great conversation piece....the taste and the bottle.

Captain Morgan Tatoo

Good for the masses I give this to my friends who pretend to be straight up rum drinkers. It's not bad, ands it's a fun drink for parties where there are a variety of tas

Bacardi Grand Melon

Great in beer.... This rum is bad...... but...... I had it in a Landshark Lager, aka loaded Landshark; pretty sweet. I'd say if you want to switch it up at a par

Appleton Estate Dark

A better Appleton A better Appleton product; the bar was set low though. Try it as a floater first before diving in.

Malibu Pineapple

Mix in a coconut This is actually pretty sweet with coconut anything; creme de coconut, coconut rums, in a coconut, you get the idea.

Better than regular bacardi This goes well in cola, and that's it. But given the choice, it's better than regular Bacardi.

Mix it Great in mixed drinks because BOOM! You are drunk.

Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold

Standard People don't ask for "rum and cola." They say, "captain and coke." Unless you are Starsky and Hutch.....in which case it's "Bacardi and coke, d

Captain Morgan 100

Kick starter You know when you are late to a party and you need to catch up? Drink this.

Captain Morgan Black Spiced

Great with cola I prefer this with cola over most others. It's not good enough to be straight up, and probably not meant for it either.

Mix it well It's good in rum punch where there is a lot of other flavors present.

Havana Iced Tea Good in a Havana Iced Tea from Cuba Libre. Probably good mixing in other drinks.

A play on vodka? So basically, I believe this product to be a competitor with orange vodka because it sells. Do yourself a favor... Get real rum and a real orang

Appleton Estate Special Gold

Tough This one was tough; not a great taste nor finish. Reminds me of a cheap whiskey.

Admiral Nelson's Premium Coconut

Smooth but lacking Smooth but lacks ummmmm....... rum. And other stuff like ummmmm..... taste. It's a pretender.

Bacardi Superior

Not cool unless.... Unless you are Starsky and Hutch Bacardi and coke....do it.....do it.

Tommy Bahama White Sands

Generic for mixing. I think it's the hype that makes it cool. I mean, the bottle is cool, but it's very generic.

Tommy Bahama Golden Sun

Mix with a lot of something else Interesting that such a brand would make a less than stellar product. Mix it heavily.
