I will do a bit of a write up as I work my way though them...I am fairly biased towards the Eldorado 12yo and the Zacapa 23yo - both are absolutely stunning.
With the Zacapa, if you hold it in your mouth for 15-20 seconds first, you will get sweet toffee flavours and a completely different flavour than if you just throw it down. I will do a more comprehensive write up when I have the bottle in front of me...
@ biscuit; I am right next to the Whisky Exchange at work, so happy to pick some selections up if logistics make that easier...I will be in there before the Wales trip next year, that's for sure
Appletons has a nice varied range - and you can pick out very different flavours between the bottles. I need to check the specific bottle but I was told that with one variety of the Appletons to try drinking it neat but having fresh lime, demarara sugar and coffee granuals to hand. You then dip one side of the lime in the sugar, other side in the coffee, bite into the lime and then drink the rum. It's a bit theatrical and a bit ceremonial, but worth a try. Half of me believes that when you start having to drink like that - it, like Absinthe with the burn sugar on a spoon, is a bit too close to a crack habit!
Diplomatico do a nice range of sipping rums - and that is really where you are by the time you have got there (so hang up the mixers).
As for suggestions - what are your preferences?
I am a fan of the sweeter demarara flavoured sipping rums but partial to spiced rums with mixers or some select everyday drinking rums - even I think I sound like an alcoholic now
