A rare bottle kill-- this has long been my sweet Sunday morning dram…

So I’ll be honest, I didn’t fall in love with the Indelible yesterday. Maybe it’s the high expectations, their previous Zinfandel was super unique despite being low proof and iirc contained color additives. This one here was pretty good but a more traditional solid rum at best, plus a bit on the thin side. I’ll spend more time with it before I pass judgment. 
 

The 2009 though is hitting all the right notes today.

This is my favorite rum bottle.  Custom made in the DR for a cigar lounge here in Puerto Rico.  It has since been "discovered" by locals and is now in one of the liquor stores.  18 years old and so very smooth.  Was $50, now $60.  Cheap for what it is.  This outfit custom bottles, thought about getting some private labels made for clients & friends.

Recently seen in PR "duty free".  There's way more that I did not record.  Most of the Bacardi rum is made here including some really nice dark ones.  Two other local brands:  Barrilito and Don Q.

Went back to Louisiana for a visit and picked this up.  It is made with Mayhaw juice.  The mayhem is the fruit of the Hawthorne tree which only grows in coastal areas.  It is a bit like a white grape juice with some lemon tartness.  Make great jelly.  The rum is very different.  It is a

Louisiana only product.

Hardcore previous content/cask influence on this weird one-- almost comes across as a heavily sherried Glenrothes.

About 20 pesos to the dollar.  About 21.00 for the HC7 and 50 for the masters selection.

Now, this is interesting… it was a struggle to haul it home, but very glad I did.
