Another Bottle of Rum on the Wall....

This is our favorite spirit, so it was only natural that we’ve tried to purchase or sample as many possible. With that said, I’ve compiled a list of rums we’ve purchased through the years. I keep a listing of most current price we’ve paid for each bottle as well.

It’s almost become a sickness; we can’t resist adding bottles rum we don’t have in our collection. We are adding rum “One Bottle at a Time.” This is helping us “fine tune” our home bar. It gives us a good idea of what we like to keep on buying. We’ve discovered that price doesn’t necessarily determine whether we like a rum or not.

I’ll use a recent tequila purchase as an example, we bought 7 Lenguas Anejo Tequila on 12/09 for $35.99. As 7 Lenguas is supposedly the original recipe for Patron. Somewhere down the line they sold their rights/recipe to Patron. So in other words it was the “OG” Patron so we decided to lay down our dough on this bottle. This tequila was a bit hot and harsh for our taste. On the other hand, Casadores Anejo which we purchased for $36.99 is damn smooth. So there you go, that’s why we keep track of what each bottle of rum cost.
