That would be a hell of a drive, but getting there is half the fun.

OK, the Legendario is a nice, smooth rum, not as pronounced in flavour as the HC7 but good, nonetheless. Lots of sugar-cane alcohol aroma, as is often present in Cuban rums, especially in HC3.
It is a medium brown in colour. The bottle is unique, came with a little cloth Cuban flag around it with a blue cloth coloured rubber band. Tonite, the paint thinner, er Liberación Añejo 7 años.

Liberación Añejo 7 años
Light brown in colour with a strong sugar-cane  alcohol aroma, this rum is surprisingly light and floral. The flavour is not strong, but pleasant, which is very different, compared to other Cuban 7 year old rums. Only 40% alcohol, but seemed to go to my head faster than others.The bottle is a translucent brown, and reminds me of a liter German beer bottle in shape and colour. Not the paint thinner I was expecting.

Where do you guys GET this stuff? Dayton, Ohio is not the rum capital of the world. Do I have to go to the Caribbean to sample these rums?
