5 MORE Budget Rums You Should Try | Hidden Gems That Won’t Break the Bank

Posted in YouTube

If you enjoyed my first 5 Budget Rums You Should Try video, here are five more bottles that prove you don’t have to spend a fortune to enjoy excellent rum.

Whether you’re looking to expand your collection, discover something a little different, or simply find great value for money, these rums all deserve far more attention than they often receive.

In this video I take a look at:

🥃 Doorly’s 5 Year Old (Barbados)

🥃 Saint James Vieux Rhum Agricole (Martinique)

🥃 Pusser’s Blue Label (British Virgin Islands)

🥃 El Dorado 5 Year Old (Guyana)

🥃 Diplomático Mantuano (Venezuela)

Each offers something different, from classic Barbados elegance and vibrant rhum Agricole, to rich Demerara character, traditional Navy rum and a slightly sweeter Venezuelan style.

If you’re building your rum collection on a sensible budget, these are all well worth considering.
