your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

I have been leaning towards using 10 Cane with a splash of HC 7yr. What have you guys been using? I like trying different Rum combo's but this one is a winner so far.

I use bacardi, but am no means a rum expert or regular rum drinker for that matter. I make mojitos a couple times a summer for a change of pace.

The only mojitos I've had were made with Bacardi... one day I'll be able to find which rum I like best with them.

I'm not a rum guy, so I'm not too picky, but I always go for Cruzan Estate Light.

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

I use the standard bacardi silver or whatever too. In a mojito the flavor to me anyway, comes from the mint and lime. I don't worry about the rums flavor but so much in a drink like this.

If Havana Club 3yr is not available, Cruzan Estate Light 2yr is an option.

Havana Club Silver. If I don't have that, Bacardi white. I never use an amber or dark- nothing uglier than a dirty mojito- and yes appearance in a mojito is important.

I typically use Cruzan when entertaining. If I am making them for just Danielle and I, we use 10 Cane.

I take it back, I had a sample of a mojito with Havana Club in heathrow. I liked it, but I'm not sure which I like better.

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

I'm just the opposite.

When entertaining, I'll use 10 Cane. If it's just me at home, I'll use Baccardi or Cruzan

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

I typically use either Appleton White or Mount Gay Eclipse Silver.

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

For all other purposes I use nothing but Cruzan - the native rum of the islands. But for Mojitos I use only Bacardi Silver Label as it just seems to make a much better Mojito than any other.

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

I am a 10 Cane fan myself. Of course, I still down not have the Mojito making down yet- too much mint sometimes, too much alcohol, who knows what I am doing wrong. All I know is that summer is approaching, and I will get it down this year ;-)

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

Habanos Club 7 Anos or Legendario.

If I dont have it I don't make Mojita

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

10 Cane for myself, Bacardi or Cruzan for anyone who asks for a mojito after downing half a dozen Budweisers.

You mean you serve the good stuff to your guests?

who woulda thunk that was the right thing to do?;):r

In general 10 cane is what I use, but I've also being using Marti Autentico lately. Not bad stuff.

:tpd:
Whole different story, there.

Re: your favorite Mojito Rum?(assuming you make non premix mojitos)
 

Good to hear. Never tried cruzan..always wondered if it was any good. Appleton I have been meaning to try. There is a Jamaican place up the road that is a Mojito/Rum bar and they use a ton of appleton. Not to mention KILLER jerk chicken!

You have to use "Yerba Buena" mint leaves. No other mint does it justice.


One twist I tried(after blood orange mojitos in Casa Fuente) was using Bacardi O in place of regular rum. Holy tastiness for a change of pace!
