@jfields brought this to my cabin in 2008 or 2009 and it has been there ever since; I brought it home to try. I think I read that this was made differently back then than it is now?

It has been through many years of -5 degree to 85 degree temperature swings and I am curious if it will still be any good? Was it ever good?

I'm looking to dabble, myself. (That sounds graphic). Was going to start with this Barrell release finished in bourbon barrels.

BTW this site has some sweet store picks. A 14 yr. Canadian rye too (think Whistle Pig)! Mash&Grape

Or this one finished in an MGP rye barrel 😍

That's interesting because I remember the first night John brought this to my cabin. We sipped a bit and I went and got a can of coke and started to pour some in my glass and John freaked out "this is good sippin rum, you don't mix anything with it" I literally added two or three drops of coke and said I liked it. He tried it and looked at me and just said "fucker". :)

Zacapa is my top 2 Rums. But I don't really drink Rum and the other one is Bumbu. Sooo that's not saying a ton. Try and and see if its good.
 
It’s not a bad rum. I highly suggest diplomatico reserva and plantation xo

Damn! It sucks to get old! Now I wonder if that's actually the bottle John brought or if it's another one that I bought?o_O

The 16 year is quite good. Brought it to a friend's house and we nearly killed the whole thing in one sitting.

Wasn't aware they had a 16. Thought it was only 21 and 30. The 30 is absolutely delicious.
