I will be bringing the following as of right now:

1. Zacapa 23 - St. Lou Stu x1
2. Ron Centranario XX - St. Lou Stu x1



I have been trying to land more Trini Zaya (I drank all of mine), but have been promised that they would have it for some 3 months now... no dice yet.

Please feel free to update with a better list of good rums that we could bring and indicate what you would be willing to contribute, if anything.

Also, if anyone would like me to pick up anything that you may have a hard time locating let me know as I have the world best liquor store.
I would be happy to buy it and deliver it at the Shack if you could pp me fundage for it. Rum, Bourbon, Scotch....whatever.
I'm driving up, so I have some room.
Here is a link to the store... they have quite the selection. http://shoprandalls.com/categories.cfm?d=14

So what do ya say fellas? Let's get a good assortment to do some tasting!

I'll look the site over and get back to ya.

I think Zacapa 23 and Ron Centranario XX blow away any Cuban rums I have had.

I have to agree, I think we sampled the best they had to offer and Ron Centranario XX is still my favorite

The Zacapa and the Centranario XX are definitely 1-2 for me, sometimes in varying order depending on my mood. When we had the Havana Club Barrel Proof, it grew on me and was good, but I still like the others better.

Definitely agree Tom. Barrel Proof is good, but it is in a totally different flavor bracket.
