Hey Caerthe, I was one of the 52 views who didn't respond...in truth I don't know much about exotic R(h)ums, and didn't respond in hopes of not making a fool of myself. (More than usual I mean)

But..since you left the gate open...

The best tasting Rum I've ever had was called Rum Agricole and was not made from Molasses, but rather from Cane Juice, fermented and distilled. What I had was from a French Speaking place as it had the H in Rum, and had a fantastic complexity about it, with tones of Vanilla and Marshmallow

Besides the hard to score Cubans which everyone speaks so highly of, I am really intrigued by the resurgence of Rum making in the Canadian Maritime Provinces. It's just for the novelty of it. (called Skreech there)

Cheers
