Capn Jimbo's Rum Project Forum

I was in my storage space and I found an old label MGXO...

...for the life of me I don't know when or how I acquired it. But I was thrilled.

Probably going to grit my teeth soon and salt away some 1703s.

If that's even still possible let's resurrect this. I'm in heavy.

Found two bottles of the Old Estate Diamond last month. Saving them for a special occasion down the road.

Was pretty excited to know what I was looking at. Thanks, Rum Project!!!

Update: I've looked in the arrival duty frees in both Gatwick and Heathrow, and also the departure ones at Heathrow, and have not seen any Woods 100 1Ls. When was the last time you saw this Hassouni?

For those who may be interested, the Preacher is having another go at the 151 with his own Hamilton 151 Demerara overproof.

I'll try a bottle, but finding it will probably be frustrating.

Also have a few of the Jamaican 21yrs, I think it was.

To return to the beginning question, I would choose two of the Berry's.

My favorites so far have been two of the ones not mentioned on your list, the Guadeloupe and the Nicaraguan.

Part of the reason I've taken a 6wk hiatus from the board has been to dusty hunt some of Texas and then to check out London's rum offerings, including the splendid Cadenhead's store, of which I am now a loyal and devoted customer. Expensive? Sure. But phenomenal? Abso-freaking-lutely. Being somethin...

Dark rum had a rough childhood, and just can't be happy and positive all the time like the other rums.

Buy two at a time. You'll always have a full bottle's warning to re-stock

Thanks, R!
