Rum fan here. Is it good? Is it available here? (Currently buzzed on Bacardi Gold and Coke) ETA: I have a babnana tree too...no brown mush for me either  Is it good? Not really. Can you get it here? I doubt it, I got it into the country with my last cocaine shipment.
Diet lime Coke is fucking delicious.

Bacardi 8 with crushed ice and a lime wedge paired with a Montecristo Churchill is what summer evenings are all about.
I want to try different rums, but it seems everybody is on the spiced rum kick, and I cant stand that shit. No aspartame with liquor, by the way.

I have a little captain around here somewhere
Lately I have been on the spiced run kick (sorry, but I like it) and I switched to Cruzan, very tastey. Just last week I ran out and decided to try a bottle of Goslings "Black seal" rum and it is indeed very black. It isn't spiced but it is good. I mixed it with some fruit punch/mango stuff the kids had in the fridge and it made me realize that mixing with fruit juice is what rum is all about. Now where is my blender?  And oh yea, watching "Last of the Mohicans" right now. Magua was a bad ass mofo and I want one of those throwing things that they used.

really? I will need to check my local Binny's - I liked Brugal a lot when I was in Dominican Republic! Quoted: I started seeing Brugal Extra Viejo in stores recently. That's decent rum. They only imported the paint thinner grades for a long time, but EV is their top of the line. |

It's got the yellow fishnet stocking on it like the Dominican EV bottles, but the label is black. Different from the ones I bought there. |

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y83/ledsleddiv/007.jpg I'd like to add a bottle to my measly stash... Wow. Nice. |

Quoted: I have had Havana Club 7 Anos and thought is was less than stellar. But that's just me. I like Koloa rum, from on Kauai... and these, which were lost in a series of small fires... sad, so very sad.  |
|
Quoted: I've got a bottle of that on my bar, and between that and Flor de Cana, I choose the nicaraguan rum. It comes across as smoother and more flavorful. But then again, I am still nursing my way through that Havana Club... Yes on the Flor D C....Isn't Havana Club just "inspired" by Cuban rum???? |

Quoted:
Flor De Cana 12 years old - is what I drink now - would never mix it with coke or put ice in it! bottle of Appleton Estate is next. I will be in Jamaica in August and will stock up for next year :) I love Appleton's Estate 12 year old. I bring back a couple of bottles from Jamaica every year. I'm also a big fan of Dos Maderias 5x5. It's a Spanish rum, 10 years old, and is absolutely lovely. Cheers! Jeff |

No... it's the real deal if it has the Made in Cuba stickers... Look towards the bottom of these 2 bottles in the pic the OP posted. |

They were. Bought them in the airport in Kuwait. A friend just picked up another 5-pack in Amman, Jordan.. Siglio II's, IIRC. The Maduro Magico was very nice, but would have been better with a glass of whisky than coffee. So much for Kuwaiti rules about al key haul. :-(
