If you can find Bond & Lillard. You will be pleasantly surprised at it maturity of flavor. That is hard for me to articulate. YES! Your husband will like it
Must ask the small store in our town if they can get it. Hubby likes to watch some kind of tasting show when I see he has it on like to sit and watch with him. When I was young Bourbon was my drink of choice .If you can find Bond & Lillard. You will be pleasantly surprised at it maturity of flavor. That is hard for me to articulate. YES!

At Costco in south county St. Louis right now!
Picked up a bottle of Widow Jane 10 Year for $15 off yesterday. I haven't heard too great of things about it but figured for $60 it would be worth to try it. Also got a bottle of John Bowman for $35, which is a great sipper.
Any rum snobs on here? I really want to get into rum. What would you reccomend and why.

Cruzan is the first real American Rum. It's produced on St Croix. They have varying levels of price point, it's inexpensive.
Sailor Jerry, Captain Morgan, Bacardi, and Malibu are all the shit stuff IMO.
Expensive stuff, Flor De Cana or Havana Club

I've seen the cheap Havana Club, not expensive.
Havana Club Anejo Clasico
I really enjoy Bowman Rum. The others I've tried are Diplomatico and Ron Zacapa 23 Year. I wasn't a big fan of Zacapa 23 year as I thought it lacked flavor.

I've not tried anything over $40/bottle. My Brother In Law had purchased Cuban Havana Club while in Bahrain.

I bought a bottle of Bulleit when I went to SHOT a few years ago because it seemed appropriate. It’s still sitting in my fridge.

Yup.
Why is it still in the fridge?
Did find out yesterday from the manager of the store I frequent. That a store in Poplar Bluff. Was selling Blanton’s for $700.00/ bottle. They had the entire stock somehow for miles around. The ABC is now investigating.
I have my name on a list for a bottle of Blanton’s. Cannot believe how much of a stir this elixir causes.
It had better be good @Ooh-Rah

Don’t you dare spend that kind of money on a bottle of Blantons! LOLIt had better be good @Ooh-Rah
$100 max.
No effing way bro! Lady told me $65.00 max.
700 a bottle? Should be a $60 MSRP.
For 700 I'd rather spend the extra $150 for Bookers Rye or Al Young.
