At last count over 50!

I have 15, but I'm always working on finding new rums. Usually I'll find a recipe I want to try and will pick up the required rum for that recipe. Which is how my collection grows.

Brugal Anejo
Meyer's Dark
Hamiltons 151 demerara
El Dorado 12
Bacardi Select
Bacardi Gold
Bacardi 151
Gosling's 151
Malibu coconut
Malibu Mango
Appleton Estates V/X
Doorly's XO
Sailor Jerry's Spiced
Captain Morgan Spiced
Blackheart Spiced

The 21 year is fantastic, it is my favorite sipping rum

You are wasting it mixing though

Flor de Cana is a good white mixer (the 4 year) - what do you prefer? I think it is better than cruzan at roughly the same price point

Five Banks and Cana Brava are better, however higher price points

I agree about Ed 21, and I don't use it as a mixer. I just don't consider it 3x better than the 15, even though the price says it should be. I switched from Cruzan to don q as my main mixer, and have also added plantation and el dorado white. Flor de Cana 7 was one of the first rums I had that made me into a rum drinker, and I just wish they would put the word "year" on the bottle. The 18 year just says "18 slow aged," which makes me believe they are skirting the law regarding putting an age on the bottle.
