What Rum/Rhum did you buy today?

Sat in on a zoom tasting a few nights ago.  We powered through nine samples over two hours.  Our host was an independent bottler/importer out of Boston called Raising Glasses.  Really nice folks and obviously passionate.  About half the tasting was various rums they selected and bottled.  Cask finished Four Square was tasted as was rum from Venezuela and Thailand!  The standout for me was a 16 yr Beenleigh from Australia.   Had to have it.  It ships soon.

That is excellent rum.  Brought some back from the distillery last summer before it landed in the states.  TW exclusive still...

Calvados barrel aged.  Heard about this one from the Altamar folks about a week before release, supposedly a much smaller release.  Haven't seen actual numbers, though.

I have one of these that I haven't opened yet.  I don't drink rum very often.  Curious to know your feedback on how this one stacks up.

Found this Bowman Rum in the back of the bar, so decided to go with it.

Didn't know A. Smith Bowman made rum.  Very cool!

I like the 12YR as well, I'm sure I'd enjoy this and will pick one up next time I'm near a TW.

I was gifted a bottle of Ron Zacapa No. 23.  I don't know rum so I'm assuming this is close to entry level sipping rum?

Perhaps since I am feeling a touch blue as Summer has now officially given way to Fall, I feel like a rum to hang on, right now.

Picked this 4S Up this week. I’m sure it’s going to be very good.
