Look, if you’re going flavored, get a sweet pineapple rum drop that was never meant for sale.

Plantation cellar master Alexandre Gabriel and author David Wondrich created this rum to share during Tales of the Cocktail conference, in honor of Reverend Stiggins whose favorite drink was the pineapple rum in the Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens.

The Fancy Pineapple Rum was such a hit that Plantation made it an official release, and it’s an outlier of great quality in the flavored rum market.

13. Goslings Black Seal Rum

Ginger Beer, dark rum, and lime juice. Simple and sizzling. A dark and stormy rum cocktail is made better by Goslings Black Seal Rum.

It’s such a potent combination the company has even trade-marked the name Dark and Stormy. That’s all the evidence I need.

Look, a dark rum of this type is not for everyone, but it will put you right. The molasses, brown sugar, heady spice mix and lengthy maturation process adds to its mystique, and the lovable seal on the label doesn’t hurt either.
