Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

I really enjoy rum. Mostly either spiced, black, or rum liqueur, but I've been trying a lot of flavoured ones recently.

Favourites are:

Rosemullion

Nelson

Crusty Juggler

Anyone else have any recommendations?

(Any talk of mixers will be considered a heretical tangent...

Yes. The three I mentioned.

Kraken is probably easier to get than Crusty Juggler, and isn't far behind in quality. Nelson is a bit niche and quite expensive to just try. Rosemullion will sell you some miniatures, so it's not a big expense.

Chairman’s spiced rum. It’s a little known rum from St Lucia but you can buy it in Waitrose

Happy days.

I'm partial to dark 'Navy' type rums which I sip neat. Woods is excellent but overproof with a mule's kick. Best of all is Gosling's Black Seal. Hard to get hold of, but Waitrose stock it sometimes.

Mount Gay Sugarcane Brandy was a personal favourite but they stopped making it about 10 years ago.

Appleton's 8 year old reserve isn't bad and can be found in some supermarkets.
