Still more comments on rum (new top ten)

More excellent feedback on the original rum post – two or three from various anons and one from geoff. We start out with thumbs down on “Lambs Rum” (is that Lambs Navy, Demerara Rum?) in favor of aged Bundaberg Gold from North Queensland, Australia. The gold brand of Bundaberg was passed by way of an Etchells sailor. Had to look the Etchells class up, it's worthy of a seperate post. Bundaberg is sssmooth with a fruity taste like a Demarara or older Dominican rums. Our aficionado goes on to note that the closest taste to Bundaberg Gold in the States is Myers Planters Punch or some of the lighter Appleton rums. He also reminded me of rum a college friend turned me on to - Anejo (this poster had a flavor called Ron Anejo Anniversario.) Our Boulder friends called it “rat bat” after the logo and made it a legend many miles from the Bahamas. Ron Anejo Anniversario (from Venezuela) is cask aged for at least 12 years. Somebody wrote recommending Austrian rum, of all things. It was introduced to him by one of his Austrian girlfriends and they drank it in gallons to get themselves cross-eyed and naked. Another wrote to add Pyrat and Ron Zacappa Centenario. Nice, dark and a great “sippin” finish on both of those. So on sheer enthusiasm as a measure (mixed with a little research) this is the list. Feel free to add/subtract through comments. We've only scratched the surface.
