Hey Swervin, Mount Gay XO is currently on special offer of £29/bottle at Sainsburys, or £28.10 (Prime) or £30.99 (for non Prime), thought you might want to stock up :-)
Cheers for the heads up! 
Been waiting to see it on offer for some time. 
Was looking forward to a few rums tonight. Might get one on order, and maybe pop into M&S on the way home.
It's still £28 on Amazon if you have Prime, and Ocado are doing it for £28 as well.

and now for something completely different.....CORNISH RUM -and we're not talking 17th century smugglers :-)!
Revolver Rum, brewed in Cornwall and very good it is too -lovely pale amber, soft and well rounded -perfect for sipping neat like a good cognac. I tried it on holiday down there earlier in the year and its beautiful so I bought a bottle and needless to say it didn't last long when I got it home! There's limited places to buy it outside Cornwall, but the good news is I discovered if you talk to a guy called Stuart at the distillery nicely they'll do mail order.

On a related matter, Healeys cider farm do a range of ciders where they have matured in rum/whisky/brandy barrels. The rum one was really good, but combining Rattler and rum can only be a good thing in my book. As the oak matured ciders are low volume products, they can only be bought from their farm shop.
Duppy Share currently £22 on Amazon and Pussers 15yr £39 if that's of interest to anyone

Strangely (relatively) rumless at present.
So just pulled the trigger:
Ron Millonario Sistema Solera 15 Reserva Rum
Gosling's Black Seal 151 Rum
Ron Zacapa Centenario Sistema Solera 23 Rum
Plantation Gran Anejo Rum Guatemala & Belize
Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva Rum
Only the last two have been regulars of mine, I'm particularly looking forward to trying the Ron Millonario, they have an XO which is fairly pricey but rated very highly.
Love this guys rum blog, and haven't had a bad one that he's liked https://therumhowlerblog.com
Oh and got cheeky sipping tequila: Fortaleza Reposado Tequila

I too am nigh on rumless. I really should have got 2 bottles of the Mount Gay XO when it was reduced at Sainsbury's last month 
They now don't seem to have it on the shelves at all
Tempted to go with a Doorly's XO next. I might put the message out that an Angostura 1824 would make a very nice Xmas pressie...
