Help me decide on a gift-worthy rum?

Question

Hi,

I would like to buy my boyfriend a fine rum for his birthday. I could spend up to about 60$.

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

I don't think you need to spend that much to get some great rum. You  could probably get a bottle of both Pyrat XO Reserve and Ron Zacapa Centenario 23 Anos from Guatemala. They're excellent and different from each other and most other rums you have probably tried.

Pyrat should be fairly easy to find at a well stocked liquor store. Ron Zacapa might take a little more work, but it's worth it.

Answer 2

that's leaving a huge gateway... for myself i'd say...   bacardi dry... because you can use it for anything by itself with ice is light, dry and very easy going down.

simple as that... it even works well with pepsi.. yuck!  and no one likes pepsi and rum.. the fame is happening with the  rum and coke!

the dry works well with very fruity mixed drinks.

it's famed for kahlua and ice creams with a soda of choice...   it goes well with most anything and it's so dry it works as a replacement for vodka in most drinks.

remember..  bacardi dry for the holidays with eggnog.

it also works very good with baking too.. it's flavor sticks.

Answer 3

captain morgon or bacardi.

Answer 4

DonQ grande anejo, Don Q anejo, bacardi solera or bacardi 8
