Thanks to MikeOz I have a bottle of one of my favorite rums now... Captain MOrgan Private Stock. I know its not as fancy as what y'all drink but I enjoy it. I also have been drinking one of my other favorites, Kraken.

I came real close to buying a bottle of this, but went with Flor De Cana instead. When I went to look at the K&S I about dropped the bottle wasn't expecting it to be so heavy haha.

An btw is Havana Club worth all the rage? Bottle prices aren't bad it's the shipping I have a hard time paying…

liked it pretty good, short of loved it.
not the big sweet of Zaya or Zacapa 23, a bit dryer. A bit of heat for 80 proof. I'd get again if the right price.
rumgallery.com doesn't mention it but I thought the profile was similar to a restrained Pyrat but better, if that makes sense, and I can get Pyrat for crazy cheap around here.

edit: Pyrat isn't my favorite profile, but something just reminded me of it in the K & S. But The K & S is much better IMHO
