Lovers of fine spirits, if you like rum (or even if you don't), I'd highly recommend trying out the 3-star variety of Ron del Barrilito rum. You can get it here:

...as well as many other places. I've had all sorts of rums (many more expensive than this one), but I've never had anything this smooth. Just a little recommendation I thought I'd pass along -- and if you're in Puerto Rico, you can pick it up for $18 a bottle or so. Here's what Wine Spectator had to say about it:

Ron del Barrilito 3 star Rum
Established in 1880 by Eng. Pedro F. Fernandez in the "Hacienda Santa Ana" at Bayamon, Puerto Rico. For over 100 years, the Fernadez family has manufactured "Ron del Barrilito" at the place of origin, using the same name, formula and aging process. This special rum is a blend of rums aged, each undisturbed, from 6 to 10 years in charred oak barrels. Enjoy its unique, smooth mellow flavor by sipping, in a snifter, or enjoy it straight, with a splash of water, over ice, before or after dinner.
