Question for the rum experts - Puerto Rican Light Rum - Tiki Drinks and Food

D Destro100 Tiki Socialite Joined: Jun 28, 2012 Posts: 137	D Destro100 Posted posted on Fri, Jan 10, 2014 7:39 AM Hey Folks, I recently began using the El Dorado 3-Year Light Rum - as my light Puerto Rican light rum. I know it's not Puerto Rican, but I had just finished my Flor De Cana (I also realize it is Nicaraguan - but it has served as a great sub for Puerto Rican Light). Anyone think the flavor profile is so different that I should switch back to Flor de Cana? Is there a different, more authentic "Puerto Rican Light" rum I should pick up? I am working my way through Beachbum's Remixed (you can easily find my other thread on the journey) and had been using the Flor De Cana light - for all the Cuban and Puerto Rican light rum recipes. Any objections or suggestions? Thanks
