Need some good Rum!!

[hangnail]

does anyone else prefer rum with something other than coke? i prefer ginger ale, for a few reasons

i think you can taste the rum better, it isn't as sweet. and coke is tough harsh on my stomach. a few rum and cokes and I am hitting the rolaids with heart burn, but the ginger ale doesn't do that to me.

I did a sampling with a cigar buddy a few weeks ago, and we included the 12yr El Dorado. It was quite good.

My first choice is Havana Club Barrel Proof - goes divinely with the Cuban Montecristo No4's. Like Mount Gay Extra Old as well.

Would point out that El Dorado 15 is a real favourite over at the Rum Lover's forum for pairing with full-bodied cigars.
