My recommendations for good cheap rums that are still available
This discussion is mainly for the newbies who are trying to get away from Captain Morgan and the cheaper rums from Bacardi. All rate as good buys, with some being terrific buys. Sorry for all of the blank lines, which were caused by cutting and pasting from my spreadsheet of nearly 500 rums tried since December of 2017..

Paul,
Great list there. It's always the ongoing hunt to get really great rum to a cheap price.
Most of them are not available in the EU, but some like Doorly's and RumFire and they are really great.
Thanks Stefan!
I just know that someone will ask for the best buys on rums costing $30 to $39 US, so here they are. With the prices creeping up, I have only chosen the very best buys.
Pusser's Gunpowder Proof 109 Proof
El Dorado 12 (EU version)
Ron Alegro XO
Dictador 12
Ron Cartavio Solera 12
Appleton Reserve Blend 8 year
Smith & Cross Traditional Jamaican 114 Proof

Bacardi Gran Reserva Diez
Barnacles Gran Reserva 12 Year

Correction! For my Oxbow Estate Agricole, the correct name on the bottle is Oxbox Estate 2021 Louisiane. Since my name more accurately describes this Agricole, that is how I have it listed in my spreadsheet.
Plantation 5 is good and cheap, like my old girlfriend.....
Cheers,
