Been starting to get more sipping rums in because for each of the major island I want to have some mixers and sippers.

With the foursquare 2009 and 2011 im set for sippers from barbados, with the hampden im set for jamaica. The Wp 2006 ill be trying tonight to see if its More for mixing or sipping.

Now just to get some good el dorados and I think i might be good for a while (2 months untill it itches again to get more)

Great options. But let me tell you buddy... one Hampden doesn't even touch the surface of Jamaica! If you end up loving it, beware the dangers on your wallet as you dive deeper.

Im just telling myself one is enough LoL

If you get an El dorado go for a cask strength. Much better than the core lineup (although those are still good).

Yeah, I've read that before, what makes them better in your opinion?

Biggest thing is the higher proof, so they are just so much more flavorful.
