My favorite rums are: Goslings from Bermuda,
Pussers (the blue label) from the Brit Virgin Islands,
or Appleton's Estate V/X from Jamaica.

What's your favorite rums?

Nevr had the first 2 but Appleton Estate is phenominal.

I also like Meyers alot. And you can almost always find that at a bar.

Just the mention of Pussers gives me an uncontrollable urge to go to the store and retrieve all of the necessary ingredients for a Painkiller #4. Yummy...

What moderately priced rum would you suggest to an inexperienced rum drinker?

It's got to have decent flavor, otherwise it may scare me away from rum forever, but it can't be more than your average bottle of booze.

I think Meyer's would fit that bill. I think its delicious, but it would only be considered a "call" Rum, not a top shelf. Ihaven't bought a whole bottle of it in ages but its definately under $20 a liter and they have it at almost every bar.

Appleton's V/X would be a good choice...
It's around 20 a bottle

The easiest rum I can think of is Whalers it's about $12 for a .75 but I don't think you can burn a drink while using it. :)

I used to be quite partial to Bacardi 151. Which makes me feel like a zima swillin' sorority girl compared to you connoisseurs. :oops:

Bacardi Anejo is a great intro rum that's usually well-priced.

Woods 100. British Navy Rum. A swine to get hold of but worth every penny. I don't think I have ever been so drunk...

Don't worry about it... 151 isn't that bad really.

I used to drink Everclear in shots
