I still have half a bottle of 7 next time you're in the Dallas area.

My point was that a caipirinha does not have rum as an ingredient.quote:Originally posted by MJAlbers:exactly...I was adding to your "not on subject" and currently enjoying another one; nothing to do with your Havana Club 7.quote:Originally posted by NolanE:
That's not a caipirinha.
Nolan...please enlighten me; I assume then this is a drink that you enjoy? If not a sugar cane rum, what do you recommend?quote:Originally posted by NolanE:My point was that a caipirinha does not have rum as an ingredient.quote:Originally posted by MJAlbers:exactly...I was adding to your "not on subject" and currently enjoying another one; nothing to do with your Havana Club 7.quote:Originally posted by NolanE:

Cachaça only. 
Have the HC 7 and Barrel Proof rums in my hoard. Have not seen or tasted the HC 15 though. I get mine in Jamaica. Will keep an eye out for it now.

Glengoyne 10, unpeated Lowland kind of charm
I got to try a pomegranate infused tequila at work today and it was nasty stuff.
Ron Zacapa XO aged rum from Guatemala.
Seriously good stuff. Beautiful nose of cinnamon, over-ripe banana and allspice. Rich, smooth mouth feel with just a hint of burn on the finish. Bravo.

That partially answers my previous question. Have you ever tried the Solera Gran Reserva 23 from Ron Zacapa ?
didn't see your previous inquiry. My bad.
I like the Ron Zacapa Solera 23, but really like Zaya 12 yr from Trinidad and Vizcaya from DR better, including QPR.

Great rum - you will not be disappointed. Santa Teresa de Solera from Venezuela is also excellent. Far superior to Havana Club imho.
Great, being a rum dummy, i never heard of rum from Guatemala before. Sounds like a very good introduction.
Just found Plantation Grande Reserve Aged 5 Years Barbados Rum. Made by Cognac producer C. Ferrand, this is an incredible value at $16.99 for 750ml ($28.99 for 1.75ml). I have not seen this bottle before.
Excellent sipping rum at this price? Stock up

No problem. The offer is an open invitation.
We had a couple of nice ones last night after our offline. I can't recall the names by that point (duh!) but one was a 16 year and the other was a 23 year.
