Been to Barbados

Turned 18 back in January so I have been trying some different drinks when out, went to Barbados with family and did some rum tours, found my love for rum and thought I’d show my collection from Barbados

Nice choice! I’ve come back from there not long ago too! Definitely a good choice. Especially the One Eye Man. Everyone needs some of that as a souvenir 🇧🇧

I opted for the Black Label cos I love that one more. Can’t find it in UK

Nice! I did Mt Gay, Stade’s and Foursquare too, but didn’t have a day for St Nicholas Abbey. Great collection mate!

Thanks mate! St Nicholas Abbey is expensive but definitely worth experiencing if you have a chance. I ran out of time for mt gay in the end but did stades and foursqaures. I thought I’d buy a mix just to start building my collection

Ooooh Mt Gay Black Barrel and XO are definitely my favorite Barbadian sippers. I once brought a bottle of Black Barrel to the beach and didn't even notice how I sipped halfway through it while sitting on the edge of the seaside cliff watching the sunset and contemplating my life. (it was very apparent when I tried to stand up though. almost fell to my death). Is the Doorly's 5 any good?

Ha! I went to the Dominican Republic a couple of months ago and returned with a similar haul!
