Under 30 bucks a bottle I recommend Bacadi 8. Over 40 Ron Zacapa. If you are in anywhere but US then Havana Club Barrel Reserve.

Ron Zacapa

There's a lot of good rum out there, Ron Zacapa is definitely on the top of the list. here are some more;
The Rum Shop - Premium and Aged Rums

I would recommend Angostura 1919. On the rocks with a great cigar is devine!

Old New Orleans Rum is pretty good. They offer a light, 3yr, 10yr,and a spice rum that actually outdid Cpt. Morgans lastyear. I toured the distillery a few weeks ago and sampled them all. The 10yr old rum actually survived Hurricane Katrina due to it was on 2nd story shelves. It is nice and dark and could deffinately sip it straight. Cost is around $55 i believe.
I got a 3yr due to finances and its nice in its self, just not AS smooth.

Ron Zacapa is definitely top shelf. Ron Pampero Anniversario is in the same league but a little more oaky and less sweet.

I am a big fan of Mt Gay Extra Old.

Zaya 12 year old is excellent as is Zacapa, these 2 are neck-in-neck as my favorites!

Both are quite sweet, the Zacapa has a molasses and vanilla flavor where the Zaya has a vanilla with just the slightest banana flavor - almost like a bananas foster, but not overpowering. Both of those are sold here in GA for about $38.00/750ml.

Some other decent-to-good rums... Pyrat and Ron Pampero Aniversario.

Bacardi 151 rum...gets u utter kink.

The best drink is Caribou Lou, u take:
1/2 bottle 151 rum
1 cup Malibu Rum both in a jug,
and mix the rest with pineapple juice... mmmmm

I tried Zaya for the first time last week and it was outstanding
