Compared to the "classic daiquiri" rums in round one, these rums are typically more flavor-forward, and often composed of both pot and column still rums from multiple countries. Some of them also feature aged (and unfiltered) components.From heavy favorites like Probitas, to overlooked gems like Worthy Park Silver, to unavoidable bar staples like Planteray 3 Stars, to newcomers like Grander Cane Harvest, we put them all to the test to see what stood out and what disappointed.Here's the full rum list:Probitas / Veritas, the collaboration between Foursquare Distillery and Hampden EstateHolmes Cay Fiji Single Blended Rum (the people's choice vote winner!)Hamilton Breezeway BlendPlanteray 3 StarsWorthy Park SilverBanter White RumTranscontinental Rum Line High SeasGrander Cane HarvestCheck it out and let us know which rums you prefer from the bunch.
