Rum

[Vital]

Felt the urge to try something new and different and was recommended rum.
Never tried one before I got a bottle of Pyrat Reserve (10 yo rum) and Appleton 12 yo. Both are sipping rums (exactly what I want) and both have great reviews on them.
Not yet sure which one tastes better for me but I do like both. Pretty different in comparison to bourbon or scotch indeed, in a good way let ma add.

Are there any rum drinkers in here?
What would you recommend to try and why?
Do you drink it neat or with a cube or two of ice like bourbon or do you add lime/lemon for that citrus-y flavor that compliments rum according to some?
Any other tricks to get the best of rum drinking experience?

I always liked Don Q rum with club soda, a couple ice cubes and a twist of lime. It's a drink that's real popular in Puerto Rico in the summertime.

I like Goslings Black Seal, Appleton Estate, and Sailor Jerry. Bacardi 151 also holds a dear spot.

Cheers!
