Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Ron Zacapa 23 yr. old Sea Wynde Pyrat and the new Meyers Legend 10 yr old. Goslings 80 proof, not that 150 proof crap! Ptooey! Spiced rum tastes like my science teachers' after shave smelled back in the 70's to me. Bo
Rev.Sam Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 1) Tortuga Black 2) Tattoo 3) Captain Morgan's spiced 4) Sailor Jerry's I've had Pusser's before. Never really took.
Hawk the QM Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 1. Boone's Fuzzy Navel. Why are you guys looking at me like that?

Matusalem Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 (edited) Been on a Sailor Jerry kick lately... Ironic that my real name is Jerry, and I sail, and I'm, a 40's/50's retro freak, but I never really took to this rum, in spite that I love the packaging. 1. El Dorado 15 Year rum 2. Pusser's...though badly I miss the 47.5% alcohol version that was available 2 years ago 3. Rhum Barbancourt 4. Flor de Cana 7 year ( I always trust a third world country like Nicaragua to produce something with soul) 5. for cheap, I like Brugal. It's real ,and it's earthly crude and doesn't have that mass-produced taste. Made from sugar molasses, not straight cane. To my snotty taste, Captain Morgan or Bacardi is the 'Wonder bread' of rum. Captain Morgan's special reserve tastes like cough syrup, too much flavor additive. I will no longer buy Mount Gay Extra Old.. it is too God damned smooth and acts like cognac. $40 Havana Club is not available in the United States because of the trade embargo against Cuba, but I hears it is the holy grail of all rum.
