Ron Zacapa XO is slowly making its way into the states from Guatamala.
I have had it around for awhile, but have had to have friends bring it in from the Carribbean until recently. It is expensive, but really good.

Another new one in the past year is Atlantico, from the Dominican Republic.
A nice reasonably priced premium rum.

My two favorites for price/quality are still Mount Gay Extra Old (Barbados) and Pyrat (Anguilla).
there are some that are a little better, for a lot more money,
there are some that are a lot worse, for a little less money.

My opinions....
your mileage may vary :lol:
