StoveCap Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Partial to trying random ass spiced rums myself, got all sorts really. St Ives Island rum, Dead mans fingers, Gods own. Nothing really to call a favourite though, only been able to (legally) buy my own stuff for a little bit now. Side-note, I work in a sort of Tex-Mex place and I get a Jarritos (Mexican soft drink) after most shifts, save them up for the end of the week and find that they mix well with rum - Just an alternative to the usual rum and coke were all used to, If probably a bit sweet for the more developed of the tastebuds in here.

Skullchewer Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 This, on the other hook, is great. Oh and Aldi do a cheap Captain Morgan knock off which is better than real Captain Morgan (not difficult). Also this But the rum I had on Sunday is clearly the best 1😉 7 minutes ago, StoveCap said: Just an alternative to the usual rum and coke were all used to Rum and pineapple juice. Trust me.

Madhouse Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Rum and pineapple's a good combo, cut up a pineapple into big chunks, soak them in rum and then do them on the BBQ - tasty! Have had a few rum's, although I go through a lot more bourbon & whisky. Two bottles on the go at the mo, Mount Gay and Cape Cornwall Spiced which is like drinking christmas cake - not everyone's taste but I like it.

Intrigued by the Santa Theresa, finished in wine casks IIRC. I have a bottle of Alchemist pineapple rum which is great in a pina colada/painkiller type cocktail! Plus the bottle is super cool.

Shows you how we get fleeced in this country by many big brands. I remember queing up with a load of farmers years ago because our local Aldi/Lidl (can never distinguish between them) were doing an air compressor and tool set for buttons. This was nearly 15 years ago and most of it is still going. Back then I serviced my own cars... Now I have a glorified Milk Float, I donated this all to my brother who uses it to look after his beloved E-Type.

Cannonfodder Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 My local asda has been reducing it's range of beer and cider so I've been getting some really good deals as they clear excess stock (eg bottles of Trooper for 68p) so I'm hoping they're going to do the same with spirits. Not sure my liver will be too pleased though Lozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beorn Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 If you're ever after something a bit different I'd recommend Barti Spiced. Used to be called Barti Ddu (Black Bart) until recently. Its infused with seaweed and this creates quite a unique taste as far as rum goes, and quite a moreish one at that hunter511 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
