There were 1 litre bottles of this available in Gatwick for most of the year for £36. I haven't been through Gatwick in a few months though. Will be again in January.
It's a good rum, I find it a little too sweet.

I'm another one who loves it! One of the best things you can drink with a cigar.

It is sweeter than more other rums but it's not sickly when you're sipping it slowly.

Yes I have bud, and had a Montecristo Robusto LE 2006 of which was gifted to me by the mad mexican TJ with it the other night...

A great drop of Rum IMHO.

It is sweeter than other rums that I enjoy but once you get over that, I find the sweetness goes well with a good cigar..

Glad you enjoyed it CohibaIV! I've yet to embellish my drinks cabinet with a bottle of my own but having had the chance to enjoy this with a nice robusto, it left a bit of an impression on me! This high on my wish list for the next time i make an order with the whiskey exchange!

Absolutley awesome rum! If you like that try:

El Dorado 12 year old, really nice and sweet Guyanese rum, also available in 15 and 21 year old but I find them to be lacking in complexity.
Or Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva, a really dark Venezuelan rum.

Happy Drinking!

What did you think of the Monte Dale?

Really enjoyed it Monks. One of them cigars that you wished lasted a lot longer than they do.
I don't often smoke a cigar until it burns my fingers but I did with this one.

Just brought a bottle of this rum back from Barcelona...:biggrin1:, and also picked up a couple of the Monte Robusto 06 LE's, had a good look round on this trip and found a great little shop that had quite a few older LE's I don't know which area you are in on your trip Dale.... but this shop was right opposite the NH Calderon hotel - Casa Fuster I Fills, 29 Rambla Catalunya, about four good shops are on the Ramblas inc. Gimenos.

What would you say was the best way to drink this rum? on it's own, with ice maybe?

IMO the only way to really enjoy this Rum is, on it's own...
