I bought a bottle of the Kirk and Sweeny 23 pictured above recently and like it a lot but one thing seems strange about it. While it says "23" it never says what this number means, like "23 years old". Can't find it on their website either. The picture above, the 12 says "12 year", if it is really 23 year old rum why wouldn't they say it?

Also seems like they can add flavoring to rum? One thing I like about bourbon is the rules on what can go in it and what has to go into making it seems a lot more strict.

Went to Key West recently and went on the Papa's Pilar tour, bought a couple of bottle of it and also think it is good. Also like the Mount Gay Black Barrel Double Cask Blend (also been to the distillery in Barbados), maybe because I am a big bourbon fan.
