Some damn white rum- mixed good tho. Unicos - sounds more like a cigar I had smoked.

Balcones Rumble, got a bit of a kick to it but pretty good imo, defiantly different.

Had two glasses of Plantation Jamaican 2001 last night. When I'm done with my beers I may have another tonight. Balcones also makes a cask strength Rumble that is sold out online at two places I buy from.

Balcones Rumble, really digging this stuff.

Damn you all!! Damn you all to hell for getting me into rum, I look forward to pouring a dram of rum more than a cigar now.

saw a couple of bottles of Balcones Yexas Rum Special Release the other day! From 2015. I thought it was a one timer in 2013...$80 though, so I passed.
Snagged a bottle of Pampero Anniversario Reserva Exclusiva for $27 instead. Might rethink that decision and go back...

Jamie, Mike (plowboy), if still on the shelf...?

Is that anything like Rumchata?

2001 Plantation Jamaican. This is my go to now.

Frank I'd love some Balcones rum, but not gonna justify the price. Uncle Sam too a big chunk outta our ass last year for something that wasn't our fault, and this year they're counting it as income. So, $26 rum is gonna be where it's at!

I love the strength, funk and mild sweetness that one has. Very well balanced.

Yep, always thought of rum as just a mixer honestly. We have w fancy wine/beer etc place that opened up here a few years ago. That's where I bought the Plantation 20th Anny from and me and the owner got to taking about rum and how I'm suprised nobody really talks about it, he thinks it'll be the next "big thing", but idk heck 7 years I'm just discovering it.… honestly I'd rather sip on rum rather than bourbon/whiskey.
