I'm not a huge fan of Myer's - IMO the alcohol overpowers the flavor in a mixed drink. Coruba manages to add flavor without beating you over the head with it. I equate Myers it to Bailey's Irish Cream. Myers is readily available at most bars because it's a "name" rum most everyone knows but for subtle tropical drinks where you have a lot of complexity I find Myers too overpowering whereas Coruba mingles well without transforming the drink into something else.

Anything that calls for a dark aged rum gets Coruba in my house, that it's one of the go-to rums for Latitude 29 doesn't hurt my opinion on it either.
