I have a bottle of Don Q, it's definitely better than Bacardi, but I seem to never reach for the Don Q and reach instead for the Cruzan. So I don't see myself buying Don Q again unless I'm going to make a lot of Derby Daiquiris, in which case Don Q has some "historical roots" with that drink. I've never heard anyone really complain about Don Q. But Cruzan seems to have the edge when it comes to a "everyday" white rum. The same is pretty much true for the El Dorado white rum too -- not stellar, but better than Bacardi white. El Dorado white sure is inexpensive.
