The glory that is the Hi Times Wine Cellar and Liquor Store carries Myers Legend. I bought a bottle the last time I was there for $40. I agree with the Jab on this-- it's amazing. Well, I mean, you're not going to piss yourself when you taste it for the first time, but if you drink enough of it you might.
It's good stuff. You wouldn't be disappointed if you went back and picked up a bottle.
It's a strong dark rum, goes down good, bold and flavorful, but not too sweet.
I've tried it for sipping. I've also used it as a float on a Mai Tai-- both experiences have been very good.
It's very similar in taste to Myers normal offerings, but you can tell the quality is higher. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't think regular ol' Myers is swill, it's good stuff. But this is better.
If you've ever compared Captain Morgan Regular vs. Private Stock rums, it's sort of the same thing. I just think that on the quality ladder you're starting at a higher rung.
