Any Rum Connoisseurs?

[El Matador]

So the very nice rum that I'm drinking right now got me thinking, Is there anybody else that shares my passion for this fine liquor?

What i'm drinking right now:

[Popeye the Sailor]

I have a bottle of this somewhere:



To give you an idea.....when I bought it....it cost more than the truck I was driving.

Yeah.

Do you ever plan on actually drinking it?

[Popeye the Sailor]

I've *been* drinking it.



Worth every penny.



I need another bottle.

Good man!

It would be a waste to have that go undrunk for years..

How much did it cost?  If I may ask...

I just brought back 3 liters of Tortuga Rum from Grand Cayman.


That stuff is fantastic.

This was good until they changed the blend.

I typically drink Captian Morgan Private Stock, or Barcardi Ocho.  A good white rum is Tommy Bahama  wt:

I don't buy the really spendy stuff ~

Bought one bottle of this, limited run of no more than 2000 bottles, drink it straight up, no ice no nothing ...

And usually drink this, local ... My grandfather perfected the actual formula from the one he brought from Cuba from his distillery; mix it as usual, with cola, bout a teaspoon of water, and lemon ...

If I have to drink withe rum, I prefer widely available Appleton State White Rum ... and mix it with almost anything as if it was Vodka ...

Picked up a bottle of this this weekend...



I was also gifted this from some friends when they came back from the Dominican...

i have started having a rum appreciation night with a few friends

so far its been bbq and drinking whatever comes and some poker

we really should concentrate more on the appreciation part

friend from scotlands dad had a regular monthly gig with a bunch of mates

the host of the night would provide a bottle of single malt whiskey

they would change house every month 

a damn good idea
