Bahama Bob's Top Rum Picks

     I'm very often asked what is my favorite rum?   I usually respond with something like I really don't have one, that's because I have a list that are really my favorites.   There are so many rums out there that are really incredible that it is really impossible to choose.

     What I have done is went through in my mind, if I had to head into a fall out shelter what rums would I absolutely have to have?   This is my 50 Rums List
in alphabetical order and doesn't reflect which ones are better in my mind than the others.   I am including a few white and flavored rums as well, because I like cocktails as well as just sipping rum.
