How many different rums in your home bar?

I was just curious as to how many different rums folks have in their home bars? Not your favorites or which one is better than another just how many. Photos might be fun also. Don't be embarrassed if you don't have bottles of fifty year old rum or super exotic brands. Just for fun. Right now I have about twenty two, I think. I'll post a pic later.

I'm down to about 20 bottles or so..... will have to sober up a bit to actually list them. The pix above is the only one I had handy.

I have lost count recently but it is somewhere in the neighborhood of 65-70.

At the moment, the Rhum Rhum Room has approximately 125 different rums.

Currently the house mai tai is a combination of Clement VSOP & Appleton Extra and the house sipping rum is Zacapa 23.

Just a handful:

I think that's it. Would be interested if anyone thinks there's any glaring omissions.

I find that the more rums I have stocked, the more rum loving friends I get hanging around my house. I keep about 15 rums at home and a few others that people send me for review. I'll go for quality over quantity any day.

Right now, here's the inventory:
El Dorado 15 & 21
Barbancourt 4 & 5
Clement VSOP
One Barrel
5 Barrel
Zacapa 23

This photo is from awhile back.

You can totally skip that Malibu Pineapple.

And, unless you like coconut, you can skip the Cruzan Coco as well.

See.... two less rums to drink now. Should be a snap to get through the rest of them,

My paltry ensemble:

• Appleton Estate Extra 12 Year Old
• Clément V.S.O.P.
• Cruzan Black Strap
• Mt. Gay Eclipse Silver
• Myers's Original Dark

wow quite impressive, I need to build up my collection a bit.

where the hell is everybody getting there Havana Club rums?
:(

Good excuse to make an inventory--guess what I'll be doing tonite!

We're braving the flu epidemic and drug cartels and gettin' 'em in Tijuana. Come on, it's only 2-3 hours away from you. No pain, no gain.

The Malibu Pineapple is useful for a couple of silly drinks. This is like a three year supply of flavored rums though. I'll go through several cases of Lemon Hart before we run out of Malibu and flavored Cruzan.

Have to have some coconut rum around for the Miehana cocktail though. We bought the Cruzan Coconut to compare to the Malibu for the fun of it. Result was a toss up however so if we need to restock I'll probably go on price... never pay more than $8 a bottle!

Not braving the boarder guards too? I want to bring some Havanna Club but would hate to have it taken by customs. Cartels & Pig flu I can deal with, I just couldn't bare to see Havanna Club poured down the drain while some customs guy says "Down with commie rum"
Now that I think of it, isn't Flor De Cana commie rum too? We can get that here so why not Havanna Club?

It's a risk, yes. But I've brought back HC three times and never had anyone bother me. I think they've got bigger fish to fry than some Cuban rum.

[ Edited by: arriano 2009-05-12 09:50 ]

NICE !!! You folks stock some impressive spirits. I started this thread and still haven't put my own small list out yet. Keep up the great posts and send some of that HC my way. :D

Well you can always go to Mexico or Canada and drink it there.

Nicaragua isn't a communist state so not much to compare there. All I'll say is that the commies in Havana make better rum.

Yep, leave it to the Cuban's to make the best rum. Number two, Diplomatico. Venezuelan and almost Commie too.
I say its high time the US starts producing good rum. :)

I have 3 different RUMS in the house...

Bacardi Silver
Bacardi Razz
Bacardi 151

It's because I am a self loather..........Sorry

Someone call me a Doctor please.........

Man Rev Thumper!! Now I know were to get a drink when I go to New England!
Cheers Mate!

Appleton Extra. Cause Martin Cate said I should. Enough said.

I'm slowly building an arsenal, but the problem is that I'm wiping out bottles before I can get the shelf full. Not too bad of a problem to have, I'd say.

Currently, I'm sporting:
Lemon Hart Demerara 80
Lemon Hart Demerara 151
Cockspur 12 yr
Appleton V/X
Gosling's Black Seal
Sailor Jerry
Myers's Dark
Cruzan Estate Light
Trader Vic's Coconut (for flavoring)

I knew I was keeping count for some reason. After the recent acquisition of 8-year-old Plantation Jamaican, I'm now up to 47.

(A timely aside: I was asked to procure three more bottles of the Plantation for Beachbum Berry's upcoming mixology lesson at The Hukilau in Fort Lauderdale ... The June 12 seminar at the Mai-Kai should prove to be quite enlightening.)

Below is the main working bar area. Nothing too esoteric, just all the necessary mixers to make 185 drinks from the Bum's books plus 70 from Trader Vic and 100+ other classics. I'd list all the rums but a few at the bottom end may be a bit embarrassing. I guess I'm keeping them merely to pad my total.

39 and adding, we've polished off a couple of bottles, forgot to write them down. There's a couple of crappy stuff in the mix as well...

Admiral Nelson Vanilla Rum
Angostura 1919 Rum
Appleton 12 Year Dark Jamacian Rum
Appleton Jamaican Rum
Bacardi 151 (for lighting stuff on fire)
Barbancourt Rhum (4 year)

Alright, in all fairness the last two aren't rums!

I have to say that of all the rums that I own, the Ron Del Barrilito 3 Star is one of my favorites. It is a very elegant style of rum, with a cognac-like flavour and style.it's best enjoyed straight and room temperature in a snifter.

Working on my list now.....wholly crap I have a lot of rum....will post list soon.

I now know why RugbyMatt likes to stay at our house....82 and ever evolving!

Hinano_Paul is currently on Rum restriction. After helping to catalog all of the rum throughout the house, Hinano_Paul may no longer go to any store containing alcohol, especially Hi Times, until further notice.

Ah, come on, Mrs. Lurker, you can NEVER, EVER have enough Rum in the house!!!!! :wink:

Oh, and won;t 1/2 of that be gone when Rugbymatt visits in a couple weeks?? I think he's just the guy to effectively take care of your rum "problem" :D

I use the Woods as a float mostly, it certainly gives the drink a kick when you get down to the last few drops. I'd recommend having a bottle on hand.
I'm at about 30 rums but as with most people I seem to drink and replace in equal amounts.

Correct. Got it for the bottle on vacation. Now I am tempted to open it. A 20 YO Rum intrigues me.
