The 12 is even better... but for the price difference, the Reserve works just dandy in cocktails. If your goal is a damn fine Mai-Tai on a regular basis, then the Reserve is critical to keep around. Again, though, the 12 is better. And... if you're feeling insane and give in to the urge to buy a hundred dollar bottle of rum... well, then... the 21 yr will make you one of the finest Mai-Tais you've ever had. I use that with the El Dorado 15 for the "dark" every once in a great, great while, and it's freakin' mind-blowing.
