Okay so I know nothing about Rum. Let’s just start there. My experience with rum up until this point is Bacardi drinking rum and cokes or Cuba libres in college. Mayhe a Mojito here and there. While at Total Wine today picking up a few bottles of bourbon i figured I’d try something new and picked up the bottle pictured below. It’s amazing!!! What have I been missing? This paired with a Padron 1964 Natural really complimented each other well. Also, rum is cheap!!!!! Way cheaper than bourbon. So I want to explore this a little. Any suggestions of some good sipping rums? Prefer things that are readily available, I spend enough time hunting bourbon this would be nice to get some easy pickups.


Sorry for the punctuation and I’m sure grammar above, I’m typing from my phone and go into text message mode. 30E8A8AB-079F-4091-A42A-F3C32E1AC9E0.jpeg
 
Awesome thank you will definitely look for these. I know I saw the Zacapa today when I was there.
 
I’ve noticed since starting with cigars even with bourbons I’ve been drinking for years I get way more out of them now. Flavors I never noticed before are coming out. It’s been fun going through old favorites and figured the addition of rum would be fun as well.

Bacardi Reserva 8 Yr

Cuba- A premium, golden, sipping rum made from a blend of rums aged between 8 and 16 years to give the rum a smoother, richer flavor. Starts with a complex yet well rounded aroma of apricots, vanilla and nutmeg, leading into a rounded palate and long finish. Serve over ice.

I've never had Ko'hana -- I didn't even know it was made right on Oahu! However, I have had Koloa rum, which is distilled on Kauai. I'm not a big spirits drinker, and never really enjoyed rum, but I would absolutely buy the spiced rum, dark rum, and the coffee rum. The coffee rum was incredible.

Sorry, I thought you and Chester were comparing notes on it during on one of the herfs. I remove my statement that you recommend it :)
 
Ron Barrilito or Diplimatico. if you’re new to rums get the least expensive of either. They’re great sipping rums.
