Centenario Anejo Especial (Costa Rica)
very nice and very cheap. Not in the sweeter style of a Zacapa 23 or Zaya. But a nice, lightly sweet, long finish. Should be excellent with tonight's cigar...

ha! no, I really understand. Z 23 used to seem unbeatable to me but now my tastes have changed and it is sometimes just too sweet for the situation.
I still love it, but it can overpower some cigars.

Myers Dark with pineapple juice and grenadine - I'm sure there's a name for this concoction but it is refreshing on a humid day

Pampero is #2 on my list of favorites, just a notch below Ron Zacapa Solera 23.

Just tried Dos Maderas 5+3, Guyana Rum aged in Oak Casks for 5 years and then 3 more in Jerez Sherry casks. Pretty tasty and smooth. About $30 here in high liquor price Oregon. I'd buy it again. They have some older reserve rums in this brand, probably worth a try as well.

after much searching, learned on the internet that my local local might carry Dos Maderas products. They do, but all they had was the 5 + 5, basically the same formula but two extra years in Jerez casks, also $40...and it is fantastic!
Immediately goes to the top of my favorite rums.
