Next year you'll have to go to Shack... I brought a bottle of Flor de Cana 21 that was hardly touched... I left it... hopefully it'll still be around to drink.

Damn... I only saw the (4) clear, I would of at least had a glass.

That is horrible to hear... I hope it makes it the year as well.

I just got through talking to Dave from this rum review website. I was put in touch through the owner of an obscure liquor store that noticed me checking the back of his rum shelves, something I always do, looking for Guat Zaya. Dave does the same thing. He said he believes similar rums are Botran Solera 1893, Diplimatico "green bottle", and Zacapa, which the last I already knew. I will keep my eyes out for those others now.

That's the beauty of it...not really considering how good it is. You can find it online for around $50-60.

IF that's above your range, the Don Q Gold runs around $20.

I wasnt a fan of the Don Q I bought that same bottle for $56 I'd say it is easily priced $20-$25 too high.

I know that some purists will sneer, but I really enjoy the stuff.

I really want to try a bottle of the Brugal 1888. New expression that is aged in sherry casks !?! Loved the Brugal Extra Viejo...

Mmmmm, Zaya. I'm fine with the new stuff.

Have any of you had the BRINLEY GOLD VANILLA RUM? The local grocery store had them for $10 a bottle. So, I picked up a couple.

I am a big fan of Ron Zacapa but last night I got turned on to some El Dorado 12 year old rum. Man, what a great flavor that has! Smooth, sweet and very thick molasses flavor.

Re: nice rums?
 
Is it priced cheaper then the zacapa?

Last time I bought some, it was. :)

about 15 bucks cheaper, as I recall.

Tredegar 11-03-2011 09:49 AM

Re: nice rums?
 
Yep. About 15-20 bucks cheaper than Ron Zacapa. They also have a 15 and 21 year old rum. The guy said he tried both but he swore by the 12 year old.

Just picked up some Bacardi Oakheart.

I was concerned, because it was Bacardi, that it would be a mixed drink type rum.

It is good for sipping!

I think it tastes great. I had two glasses last night!

I hear Oakheart is really good, I passed on it the one time it was offered to me. Sailor Jerry is currently my favorite spiced, which isn't really a nice rum at all, but it tastes good with Coke Zero.

I'm partial to Zacapa atm, going to buy a bottle this Wed.

I just bought a bottle of Flor de Cana 4 yo this weekend. Nothing impressive.
