Stopped reading through the posts about half way through but I'm surprised for rum that no one has mentioned Zaya. By far my favorite rum at the moment. You can really taste the sugar cane. For bourbons I'm loving bulleit at the moment for more of a budget bourbon and angel's envy for a pricier bourbon.
Zaya is absolutely fantastic if you're not making a mixed drink. If you take your drinks neat or on the rocks, it's pretty much the tops.
Yeah Don't ruin Zaya with cola.. Sip it on the rocks.
http://www.totalwine.com/ This place kicks Bevmo's butt on price.Hopefully there is one near you.Better selection as well.Rows and rows of liquor.Rum,Vodka,Tequila,Single Malt Scotch.You name it.I spend an hour there each time I go.Half an hour to decide Scotch,Tequila,Bourbon or an occasional Pendleton Canadian whisky.And another half an hour to pick a bottle.Thousands of wines and plenty of crafted beers to choose from.Oh,and they have a small humidor too.Basic smokes.But on the fly it will work.

I've tried Zaya as well and was very impressed. Other great rum recommendations are Abuelo and Diplomatico. Since it's getting cooler I've been leaning toward single malt Highland and Islay region scotches.

I'm kinda surprised no one has mentioned it at all, with all the scotch drinkers out there, but has anyone tried aberlour? I really love that stuff. Just a touch of water or ice to open it up. Really a great scotch. It's on the milder side, but very delicious.
Just recommended Abelour a'bunadh to a colleague in work and he loved it. Cask strength blended scotch that's not your run of the mill blend. Very complex and flavorful. Their 16 is also really nice.
