I got a try of that from a friend too. Good stuff. Any comments about Pussers? Or Mount Gay?My Buddy just brought me a Goslings Black Seal Bermuda Black Rum. Small shot with 1 ice cube in a big glass.
Ay Dios
I swear to all things holy, I think I'm going to start drinking again. lolContrabando rum
Dominican made
I see this around… 700 pesos for 700ml bottle
Rivals the Doble Reserva for price
Haven’t tried it yet but read it’s a vanilla taste along with others
Want to give it a go
Aging process stops once they pull the juice from the barrel and bottle it.I actually have a bottle of Siglo de Oro and Leyenda here at home. Aging.
You will do a lot better price wise in Duty Free...............Oh @#$%!
Flor de Caña 18 is the best ron I have ever tasted in my entire life!
Well over my pain threshold for a bottle.
But worth every peso.
A special occasion or once a week sipper for me. Neat.
Will re-up mos def!

You say getting old, I say aging... LOLAging process stops once they pull the juice from the barrel and bottle it.
Your Siglo de Oro and Leyenda are just sitting on the shelf getting old at this point...
Like you brother 🤪
EASTSIDE‼️
You got good taste in ron my DR1 brother.You will do a lot better price wise in Duty Free...............
Was there not a relatively recent thread, perhaps more than one, about what a rip-off duty-Free was, generally?You will do a lot better price wise in Duty Free...............
The robbery we talked about was buying Dominican Rum in Duty free here. Flor De Cana is from Nicaragua and is a lot cheaper in Duty Free than anywhere you can buy it..............Was there not a relatively recent thread, perhaps more than one, about what a rip-off duty-Free was, generally?
Can you confirm the price today in duty-free so we might compare?
Is this a one-off with good pricing on just this item?
I guess it's possible I'm misremembering, but like Senor Vegas I don't waste my money on stuff I can get in a local store or "back home", unless it's much cheaper, and I'm, sure of the price, or normally it's something I've been coveting but have not been able to find.
IsLeyenda is cheaper in the liquor store than the duty-free. Keep looking (not hard enough) for something better to take home but can't seem to find anything I like as well.
The website rum ratings doesn't like it much. Got excited about the Barbancourt Cuvee until I found out the price.Is
Barbancourt
any good
I am not much of a drinker but I saw some in the supermarket today for 800 pesos 8 year Barbancourt. I get that it's a dark rum similar, but not as good to Pussers navy rum, which I grew up on, as my father was from the Maritimes and rum drinker.The website rum ratings doesn't like it much.

Like with all things we find value where look. And you have to know your prices. I focus on what I cannot purchase here in 🇩🇴 . And I can get Flor de Caña 4, 7, 12, 18, and 25 here. And check this out...Flor de Caña 7 is less expensive in 🇩🇴 than in Duty Free.Define "a lot" cheaper please. Your first example is about $5USD cheaper than at home, and it's not worth stopping for regardless. The 18-year-old...if it was available I might stop for, but it would have to be an especially good price since again I can order it and have it delivered...but that's just me.

I am not much of a drinker here and even less so at home in the Maritimes. Just retired and used to give away my rum at work to volunteers, now the stuff is going to pile up in my basement. Good problem to have.I am not much of a drinker but I saw some in the supermarket today for 800 pesos 8 year Barbancourt.

Many people don't know what Rum should actually taste like. So many distillers add so much sugar to hide their lack of skill and aging that the drinking public in general don't what good Rum or Rhum should taste like.The website rum ratings doesn't like it much.
