Sorry to ask a silly question guys but I can’t believe the number of you who love rum.
I love my whiskey and bourbon on the rocks but RUM !!!!
Seriously !!!!!!
I am thinking someone has poisoned my mind as the only rum I know is Bundy and I can only think of one use of a bundy can and that is throwing it at someone. Is there another drink I need to experience?

Almost any other rum apart from bundy will give you a better indication of what rum usually is, bundy is a very "distinctive" drink to put it nicely.

Go to a decent bottle shop and look for something from the Caribbean :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Or better yet go to a decent rum bar and try a couple for a fraction of a bottle ;-)

Well there's your issue summed up nicely! :))

Get yourself a bottle of Diplomatico or something similar and come over to the dark (rum) side!

Thanks guys.

i have been trying some neat spirits in the interests of science only :shifty: , and so i can compare my own products.
the local pub has been saving me loads of empty spirit bottles and there is always that bit left in the bottom :-D
i was in the workshop last week looking like a derro, swigging the last drops from spirit bottles.

ha ha, it's no use opening a whiskey debate, i just can't stand it, however good it's supposed to be.
probably why i've still got 2 unopened bottles from 1968.
