The final installment of our first blind rum tasting concludes with this episode in which we battle current leader Bacardi against Cruzan and 10 Cane rum. While every rum we've tasted in our blind tasting has qualified as a good product, we can only have one winner so it will come down to round 3.

We wanted to thank everyone for all the comments. We had some great suggestions to keep in mind going forward and have learned a lot from the experience. We've seen passion behind specific brands where some people refuse to believe we "let" bacardi get this far while others defend them. You may not agree with our assessment of the brands and that is perfectly okay, everyone's palate is different.

Welcome to the second blind tasting on the show. This is the prototype "pilot" episoide for a spinoff show that focuses on the spirit themselves, not the cocktail. Jennifer and I bring on round-2, this time we're tasting Bacardi (yesterday's winner) against Don Q and Brave Spirits rum brands.

Please note, as with yesterday, each of these brands, in our view, are great products -- we're searching for the one that tastes best on our palate without the persuasion of label or friendship. We love the producers of all the brands regardless to where they rank in our mouth.

For those that have sent comments on creative ways to rank or suggestions for the show, remember that this episode was pre-recorded after the last one so changes were not able to be made.
