I recently ran out of Clement VSOP and so needed to replace it (as it was my only rhum agricole.) I wanted to try something new but couldn't decide whether to get something light and strong for mixed drinks, or something aged and more complex for cocktails (or even neat.) Since these were both reasonably priced and I am notoriously indecisive I grabbed both the Damoiseau and the JM to hopefully cover both bases.

I hope I made the right choices. Any opinions?

I also grabbed the Dominican Club Silver because it was on the store's close-out shelf for five bucks, so why not, and the Pyrat because my gal thought the bottle was too cute not to pick up. The Sirop was an impulse buy inspired on another recent thread.

The JM is one of my favorite Agricole rums that are currently imported to the US. It is my go to for sure. I like the Sirop as well, you will enjoy it! I have not tried the Damoiseau so I would have bought it to try as well. The Pyrat is not great rum, made by Patron which is also overrated in my opinion, but since you got it for the bottle I am sure it is a win :)
