I tended bar in San Juan in the 80s, and although we poured a ton of Don Q, what we drank was Barrilito 3 Star on the rocks. It's a delicious aged column still rum, and makes a great daiquiri as well.

In case anyone is wondering, we kept Bacardi rums behind the bar for tourists and Bacardi employees -- Puerto Rican's don't drink that stuff. Don Q in cocktails, Barrilito for sipping, and Palo Viejo for the jibaros ;-) It was still the same when I went back for a vacation 30 years later.

I'd rate this a 10, but I don't give out 10s...

Before a recent trip to PR was only familiar with Bacardi, Don Q, Captain Morgan and a few other more mainstream rums. this was an eye-opener. Looking forward to leveraging this site to learn about and taste more widely...

This is a great rum. It comes of soft but that quickly changes into a strong smokey flavor. This is a great rum that reminds you what you are drinking. The smell is also great. I was lucky to find a store in town that had 2 bottles left. I may go get the other if it is still there.

This is a truly underrated rum. Excellent as a sipping or to mix.

A smooth rum that drinks similar to a cognac. Aged in a traditional cognac method. Heavy notes of vanillin and oak. A touch of petrol on the first sip, finishes with a sweetnes.

First time I tried this was at a rum tasting in St John, USVI. Lady running the tasting let me try this one when I asked what her “go to” rum was and it was this.
Great every day sipper for me.
Great price so worth the try.

Truly the Star of Puerto Rican rum and at less than $25 btl on the island, its the value champ of all rum. This is a fairly dry rum with a wide palate of different flavors. Each time you try it you taste something new and delicious. Mixing it would be a total waste. Savor, enjoy.

I cut my teeth on rums while in Puerto Rico. Was in a small restaurant bar in Old San Juan and asked the bar tender for his best rum. Sold on first taste. Difficult to get in PA or surrounding areas. I miss it.

Love this Rum is pretty smooth and tasty. Love the caramel color of this Rum and love the oak flavor that it has. One of my favorite Puerto Rican rums!!
