Hi Paul
This was the exact Rum that drew me into Rum land
Some 15 years ago
Hi Chris, with family in the W.Indies & frequent visits, I have turned in into a rum lover, collector & drinker. The 12yo is still my favourite after 30 years, that said it’s still fun looking for a better one
Hi Paul
When I got that Rum I turned up my nose at the Rum:
“Oh, Rum.”
But that bottle didn’t last two weeks and I was hooked.
My longtime favorite is the 23 yo Zacapa from Guatemala. The 26 yo Zacapa is a little nicer but a lot more expensive. For easy drinking and most bang for the buck I like the Diplomatico Riserva from Venezuela.
What are your favorite Rums?
+1 on Ron Zacapa…outstanding stuff
Methusalem, Zapata 23 sistema solera, Diplomatico
Blue Monday performed by Health off the Atomic Blonde OST
and yes…the bottle is now empty…but never fear the big bottle is waiting to be opened.
Just googled Johnny Walker Blue Label… Ouch
But I could swear the Zacapa 23 years changed over time (not for the better).
Don’t get me wrong, it is IMHO still a excellent Rum, but (for me subjectively) not as outstanding as it used to be.
My new favorite “affordable” Rum is the Centenario 25 years gran reserva.
