As soon as I seen Bacardi Rum I knew this guy did not know what good is.
Bacardí reserva 8 is actually fantastic
@@hankymcspanky1113 Absolutely not, the are many better rums in that price (e.g. Chairman's Reserve Original, Pusser's Blue Label, Appleton 8 - sometimes costs a bit more). Bacardi is all multicolumn distillation (and almost all sweetened) and even a hundred years in barrel won't make it brilliant.
Exactly!
@@hankymcspanky1113 You can like it for sure (no shame liking anything) but it's really not a quality rum... I like Coca-Cola even if it's very low quality level beverage!
Your comment saved me time, ty
All of you complaining about how these were rated, make your own video and offer us your opinions there.
Thank you! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
If you wanna basically categorize rums, there are a sugar cane rums (Agricole) and molasses rums. Which are very different in terms of taste…both can be white or gold/dark…
El Dorado needs to be on this list. smh
💯
True
100%
I've only had Diplomatico and that's what I prefer.
BACARDI, that stuff is good to clean the table but not to drink
No El Dorado rum mentioned... well!
This is how I got my ex in the sack!😀
Where's Eldorado 12 year old?? 🇬🇾🇬🇾
Surprised that El Dorado, Santa Teresa, Havana Club, or Dos Maderas didn't make this list. But an overall great list of rums.
100 % agree
I like meyerss and villa rica dark rums are great with a coke
Yo ho ho🎉🎉 a life a rum for me 😂
Abuelo rum, check this out, from Panama
Huhh where is Havana Club and Pacto Navio 😂💀
No Havana Club from Cuba?????
Where arth thou #AlmightyLoonie?🌎💘💰
OMG, Diplomatico 1st with its tons of sugar...Putting this along good rums like Holmes Cay, Rhum J.M, Barbancourt, Appleton, Equiano, The Real McCoy & Mount Gay,unreal... The "list" includes Bacardi, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about... There's so much good and real rum out there, like Foursquare, Longueteau, La Favorite, Neisson, Hampden, HSE, Saint James, Mhoba, Clement, Worthy Park, Black Tot, A1710, Bielle, Bira, Chairman's Reserve, Clairin, Compagnie Des Indes, Depaz, Dram Mor, Kill Devil, Savanna, Admiral Rodney, Nautical Reserve, Capovilla Marie Galante, South Pacific, Smith & Cross, Trois Rivieres, Wray & Nephew, etc etc etc.
No Foursquare 🤦♂
Yup, but includes many low quality stuff that isn't even real rum...
Mount gay isn’t rare it’s in every single shop 🤣🤣
Rum classification based on color.. I'm out..
I would say this list reflects what is available to the American Market not necessarily a list of the best. You entirely miss proper Cuban made havana clubs selection of rums because of the stupid embargo you have had since the early 60's. FFS talk about a grudge, I know it is the gov and not you, but they make some superb rums the 7 year old and the selection de maestros are very good, their white rum is also a very good white probably my favourite tbh, also I would have put Plantation much higher up as they have a fantastic selection of versatile products that cover just about every eventually from neat to cocktail making.
Rhum J.........................M
HAVANA CLUB RUM THE BEST.
...at least it's crystal clear you like it!
1st time I ever seen a list without el dardo
Rum Reviewers coming in 🔥🔥
Okay so first of all.... there are some good rum brands on this list and some of which we would put in ours too. We always love sharing exciting brands so more people can discover unique and high quality rum... HOWEVER😅:
1. It is hard to trust anyone who still classifies and stereotypes rums by color. It is about as accurate as my weather man (50/50). Although some rums can be like that, we have had white rums aged longer than dark or spiced rums, spiced rums with much more than ginger and cinnamon, dark rums that are aged a shorter time and colored and so on. It is still a bit of the wild west out here so throw rules out the window.
2. These brands are an "Okay" start, but definitely missing some absolute musts. For the sake of time let's remove small craft rums from consideration... Here are a few I would add: Ron Abuelo, Foursquare, Santa Teresa, Don Pancho, Havana Club and El Dorado.
3. Some I think should not be on this list...
Bacardi: Big Brand who wants your dollars. they are making some unique products but we all know its done inexpensively to make money and the quality just isn't there. This is as unique as saying Captain Morgan (they are owned by the same people)
Shipwreck: look I love all their rum and it is so easy to drink. That being said, flavored rum is where they shine and it has a lot of added sweetness and flavors.
Goslings: this is a staple for many but they really just have the one thing they did right. A good dark rum that pairs perfect in a dark and stormy cocktail. As far as brands go they are not interested in Innovation or getting beyond that at this point. Or at least they have been unsuccessful so far.
Dictador: This one I personally love! They have a great variety and are incorporating crypto and NFTs. They even have the first Robot board member running the company! However as innovative and unique as they might be, the rum is good but not great. It is tasty and enjoyable but not exceptional. I will leave it at that.
Mount Gay: look it is the oldest running distillery in the world (yaaaayyyyy we love that!) They make a great traditional rum style that is flavorful and a must try. However the brand is a bit boring as you don't see them do anything off the original path. I get it and appreciate keeping the tradition, bit in a world where rum is on the rise and brands are stepping up everywhere to try new things, tradition often gets forgotten unless it rises to the occasion.
Flor De Cana: I will keep it short. I like the bolder and more aged Flor de cana. The younger aged can be a bit flat but has its place. A good brand but not top tier.
I cannot speak on Equiano or Facundo as we have not explored that far just yet.
The rest I think have an argument to be top 20. Not sure it would all be in mine (definitely not in that order) but I respect it. As long as people are exploring new rums and finding out how many amazing brands are out there, I am happy. Cheers🥃
Surprised you wouldnt have dictador on the list. the 20year is amazing! My fav is Barcelo Imperial though.
I don't think that these are the best rums. I don't like luxury rums as it is just an excuse to charge a lot of money. There are also too many sugar loaded rums.
You can avoid all Bacardi products since they are still operating and making millions of dollars of profit in terrosist russia
Dictador ?
That was the different types watch the video
im drinking "the kraken" with some coke and its pretty good
byob772 : If you’re drinking ANY rum with coke then you’re clueless! You might as well substitute aviation fuel
@@howardjones7370 Ha ha ha, yes, that's about it!
I think Havana Club should also be on this list.
No. Flor De Caña is actually Cuban , because reality is different from what it is
Flor de Cana is distilled in Nicaragua. It is column stilled. Rums that include pot still ingredients are tastier (eg Appleton)
Drop the AI
Diplomatico is the shit! Other good rums include Barcelo Imperial, Santa Teresa 1796, and Zacapa 21.
For Brugal to not be part of the Top 20 is a joke. Come on man!
*to be the part
Brugal is just a bit better than Havana or Bacardi. It is not a list of 20 the most popular brands (however, it seems to be this if there are brands like Bacardi or Diplomatico).
@@kazimierzpawlak4761 Being popular doesn't mean it's quality rum!
What no El Dorado Demerara Rum...dude please...we are the best in the world bar none ..we also have a record for most consecutive wins in the international competition...ref El Dorado 15 year old rum ...look it up
facts
Where is captain morgan this list is phooey
four square and smith cross beat any of these
Fiji Bounty Rum 😂
I love captain Morgan with Diet Coke, but I like to sip on Bumbu. Cost has nothing to do with it….. it’s just what I like. 🏴☠️
Pls keep it under 10
Im sorry but there aren't 20 best brands of anything. Rums, scotches, cars, watches....
Just bought a bottle of el dorado 12. Wish I hadn’t. 😔
let it breath until it smells like stewed raisins
15 better
@@lesliehaigh6765 could you describe the differences I want to pick one up but, I love the 12 so much
@@BlueNumber1 15 got more kick to it not sweet at all I think 15 is worth the extra money ...having tried the 12 and the 15 I will never go back to the 12 ..15 is hard to beat in my opinion
@@BlueNumber1 the 15 is not much more expensive than the 12 so it's worth trying
SHOULDN'T IT BE MADE OUT OF SUGAR CANE TO BE CONSIDERED RUM!!!???
This list is terrible. No El Dorado & Angostura? Half of these rums cannot compete. Do some more research…
Americans video!!! 😂😂😂
Where the hell is Bumbu?
In the sugar row!
Terrible review. I'm left almost speechless. Pretty good list of rums to avoid, however.
Don't make a top again.
Totally. Diplomatico is the champagne of Rums.....all other are cheap imitation
