2014 RumXP Tasting Competition Winners

All of the Judges for 2014
    The Judging is over and all of the score cards have been tallied.  These are the results for the 2014 RumXP Tasting Competition.     This is a monumental task to taste and score each of the nearly 140 rum in six sittings over three days in order to give you all of these wonderful winners.

     The big winner this year was Plantation with 8 medals including 4 Best of Class.  There were a lot of new winners as well.  All in all, a good year yielding an extraordinary group of winners.  Below is the list of the winners.  I would like to send my congratulations to all of the winners for 2014.
