Re: nice rums?
A few years back, Eric (Smokin5) bombed me with a bottle of 8 year old El Dorado Rum. Shortly thereafter, I traveled to Las Vegas for four days of work. As you can see, the bottle remained in Vegas
Let me just say it's "good stuff..."

Re: nice rums?
Is there a little ball or anything at the bottom of a bottle of Havana Club 7 rum??
As I took a sip out of the last not even mouthful of the bottle and I feel like I swallowed something I shouldn't have... It didn't feel like jagged plastic or broken glass though. |

Re: nice rums?
Finally opened my bottle of El Dorado 12 Year Old earlier tonight. I had two glasses of it, one with an ice cube in it and one without ice. As usual, I used my Glencairn glass for it.
It's pretty good although a tad sweet IMO. Plus I wasn't crazy about the "orange peel" aftertaste on the finish. To be fair as a rum noob, I've only had the Havana Club 7 Year Old (Cuban) rum to compare it to. Still for $40 it's not too bad. I might enjoy it the more I drink it. I wish I could pair it with a cigar...stupid winter. |

Re: nice rums?
Had a wonderful Rum Gradevole in NC a few weeks ago. If you want a great refreshing run drink try this:
2 oz. Zaya 12 yr 3/4 oz. Cardamaro 1/4 oz. Grand Marnier 1/2 oz. Orgeat 2 dashes or orange bitters Flamed orange peel for garnish Enjoy! |

Re: nice rums?
Been working my way through a bottle of Barbancourt 15 the last couple of weeks and I have to say I have been enjoying it quite a lot. Its an Agricole so a definite change up from most of my other rums but to my palate it 100% pairs well with a cigar.
Also been treating myself to some Diplomaticos Single Vintage 2000...couldn't be any different he aforementioned but WOW!!! |

Re: nice rums?
Goslings black seal has been my daily drink of the rum variety. Only $20 a bottle.
Here lately I have been drinking Bumbu which for a lighter rum (I usually dont like light rums) it is very smooth.

Re: nice rums?

Anybody else have the new Zaya Gran Resrve? Blue neckband no longer twine, and is a blend of 16 rums not not 12? This stuff has a seriously bad aftertaste or is it just me? Really regret not getting my go to Plantation XO! Anyone else have this yet?
