Picked up a bottle of this the other day. Oh my god, so incredibly flavorful. This is like someone took the regular 5-year Plantation and cranked the funky flavor up to 11. Probably my new favorite rum.

This is delicious. A bit of alcohol bite from the newly opened bottle. Waited a bit and added a few chips of ice. Bite gone. Not too sweet, which I like. Thanks for the tip.
You might want to try this one... Although a little more spendy.

Stopped at the Grey Hen/Century Grand for a curbside pickup today. They've got an online shop that they're scaling down, but there's some variety.

I saw this and thought it a decent fit for your preferences.
Yeah, it would have been interesting to visit their Pullman car concept before they had to change things up due to tough circumstances last year. I spoke to two employees named Andrew and Jax when I was picking my order up, and they did encourage me to make a reservation to visit the Hen if I wanted to taste some allocateds, which they have the good sense to not advertise on their online shop.

Listened to a podcast with Richard Seale of Foursquare. At about 1:55:00 when the question of mixing comes up, it was interesting to hear that ginger ale, ginger beer, and Ting are more common choices than cola.
I picked this one up a few weeks ago and although I enjoyed it, it was just OK. Tasty but not a rave.
Fast forward 3 weeks and I poured another dram, lit a small cigar and wow! Very much improved. From a 7 to a 9.
I understand how a little time will open a wine, but it's always a surprise when it happens with spirits.
