Re: nice rums?
Might pick up a bottle of Black Seal to try that with, from what I tasted last night the Old Rum is a sipping rum that I won't be mixing (especially considering how much it costs in BC). I tend to prefer neat spirits to mixed drinks anyways.

Re: nice rums?
Unfortunately I'm not the best person to ask that question. I'm primarily a scotch guy so my experience with premium rums is quite limited. It's quite different from both Pyrat and the bottle of Renegade (1995 Don Jose Panamanian) that she gave me last Valentines if that helps.

Re: nice rums?
I acquired two more bottles of rum this past weekend, both Tanduay from the Philippines
one is the 5year Rhum, and the other is the 12 year superior. I don't know much about them but some buddies visiting the 'ppines hooked me up |

Re: nice rums?
I just saw this http://www.krakenrum.com/ at the store tonight, I may have to give it a whirl for about 20 bucks a bottle.
Sounds like a passable sipper and a mixer, but at 94 proof.. a tich of water might be a good idea. |

Re: nice rums?
My most recent purchase. Cracked the seal, haven't poured any yet. Probably this weekend.

Re: nice rums?
Try it and form your own opinion, but for me, it would be nothing more than a mixer, since I've found some other true sipping rums. I went through a bottle and have tried it side by side with a good sipper. JMO, though.

Re: nice rums?
I think HC 7 is a fine sipper, it's very similar in style to some of my other favorites (for what it's worth, Zaya/Zacapa aren't at the top of my list).

Re: nice rums?
Anyone else a fan of the Olde New Orleans rums? I had them a couple years ago when I was in NOLA. Fantastic stuff. Mix their spiced rum with some sweetened ice tea and you have a great beverage on a hot day. There 10 y/o is damn fine too, has a nice molasses flavor.
