Ive tried Flor de Cana 18 year rum and their 7 year rum... big difference! Have you tried this? and what rum do you like better?
Puerto Rican Rum, Ron del Barrilito 3, 4 and 5 stars and Bacardi Reserva Limitada are pretty good.Flor de caña is pretty good. For Dominicans, try Matusalem, Brugal or Diplomatico, for Habanos try any Havana Club not Puerto Rican.
Bacardi solera. It has a pleasant dessert like finish. I don’t know if it’s still made.Puerto Rican Rum, Ron del Barrilito 3, 4 and 5 stars and Bacardi Reserva Limitada are pretty good.
Zacapa is the only Rum I like. I have a bottle of the solera and the XO. The XO is good but for the money I will stay away from it next time.Ron Zacapa Solera is pretty good stuff too. I've heard to stay away from the Zacapa XO stuff as its twice as expensive and not as good. The solera is nice over a little ice and seems to get better as you finish the glass.
No experience with that one in particular but I do have a bottle of their 20th anni XO (total blind impulse buy) that has a wonderful nose. Brown sugar and ripe bananas. I'm actually surprised I've only had one dram of it in all this time.Has anyone tried Plantation Rum Xaymaca Special Dry ($25)? I say it won a medal in SF this year and am thinking of trying it. Its a Jamaican rum so I apologize for the thread hack.
