IF that's above your range, the Don Q Gold runs around $20.

I wasnt a fan of the Don Q I bought that same bottle for $56 I'd say it is easily priced $20-$25 too high.

Have any of you had the BRINLEY GOLD VANILLA RUM? The local grocery store had them for $10 a bottle. So, I picked up a couple.

I am a big fan of Ron Zacapa but last night I got turned on to some El Dorado 12 year old rum. Man, what a great flavor that has! Smooth, sweet and very thick molasses flavor.

Yep. About 15-20 bucks cheaper than Ron Zacapa. They also have a 15 and 21 year old rum. The guy said he tried both but he swore by the 12 year old.

Just picked up some Bacardi Oakheart.

I was concerned, because it was Bacardi, that it would be a mixed drink type rum.

It is good for sipping!

I think it tastes great. I had two glasses last night!

I had a sample and just off that I thought it was quite good. The perfect drink for doing shots...

Picture of my latest additions. All three of the El Dorado Demerara Rums - EHP, ICBU and PM. Interesting on these rums is that they are small batch, single barrel made using the recipes, techniques and stills from the 18th and 19th century. You can read more on these HERE.

I hear Oakheart is really good, I passed on it the one time it was offered to me. Sailor Jerry is currently my favorite spiced, which isn't really a nice rum at all, but it tastes good with Coke Zero.

I'm partial to Zacapa atm, going to buy a bottle this Wed.

I just bought a bottle of Flor de Cana 4 yo this weekend. Nothing impressive.

Zacapa is probably my favorite. Just picked up a bottle of Zaya today to go along with it.

Zacapa 23 is fantastic, but my every day go to is still Pyrat. I can usually find it for around $20-24.

Have they changed Cap'n Morgan?
I just had a glass at a bar cuz that's what they had and I thought it tasted better than I remembered. Less spice and smoother.
