I have to duck this one otherwise as I'm the guy with a nephew who is an executive for Bacardi. Love Christmas presents!
But there's no accounting for taste when it comes to "distilled waters" - my favorite scotch is 10 year old Laphroaig, a single malt Islay whiskey (they make or used to make 15 and 18 year old, but I prefer the 10). Apparently the cognoscenti prefer Lagavulin, which comes from a distillery almost literally within a stone's throw of Laphroaig. They taste completely different though. I like the smoothness and seaweedy aroma of the Laphroaig, and think that Lagavulin tastes like paint thinner. But apparently everybody's mileage varies.
