Wray Nephew Jamaican Rum, but not the 80 proof version. Considering that it has 50% more alcohol, and from some threads discussing it here in Tiki Central, it sounds like it is terrible. I might just go with some Appleton's Rum, since the Wray and Nephew company bought them years ago... As always, I appreciate your input. -CMC
