Hi all, Quite a broad question, but I’d like to know what your favorite bottles are in the 40 to 60 euro price range. As this will be a shortlist for me to buy from, they have to be available retail in Europe. Thanks in advance, Matthijs ---

For me personally: Doorly’s 12, Appleton 12, Hampden 8, Hampden LROK The Younger, Neisson Blanc, Bielle 59. ---

El Dorado 15 [RX9643](https://rumx.com/en/rums/9643/) J.M Blanc 50° (alternatively J.M Jardin Macouba, has a higher rating) [RX453](https://rumx.com/en/rums/453/) / [RX11776](https://rumx.com/en/rums/11776/) ---

@DevidedByZero agreed, ED 15 is phantastic considering the price. Please add El Dorado 12 [RX9644](https://rumx.com/en/rums/9644/). Rounder and less spicy than the 15. Agricoles below 60€ I would recommend Rhum J.M XO [RX34](https://rumx.com/en/rums/34/), but it’s tricky to get a bottle for this price . ---

The El Dorado 12 is part of my collection since saturday! I have yet to try it. Great suggestions everyone, keep them coming 🙂 ---

For me personally, it’s the best out of the whole Doorly’s range in terms of value for money and a fantastic entry into Barbadian rum. Can be sipped neat but also makes a great Corn 'n Oil. I think 40€ is pretty standard price, can sometimes find it for less here in Germany. ---

As suggested before, I agree on the Doorly’s range. This is a must-buy to start a collection. Furthermore, I would also add: - [RX647](https://rumx.com/en/rums/647/): Chairman’s Reserve Original - [RX2067](https://rumx.com/en/rums/2067/): Mount Gay XO - [RX165](https://rumx.com/en/rums/165/): Worthy Park Single Estate Reserve (awesome Jamaican for beginners) - [RX43](https://rumx.com/en/rums/43/): Smith and Cross (amazing for the price, but not loved by everyone as a sipper. I enjoyed it though) Enjoy your rum journey! 😉 Greetings from Belgium, Philip ---

if you want to browse an extensive list, you can filter in the app the rums with a price range smaller than 60 EUR and then sort by highest ratings. It might not provide a perfect list, but at least there might be some interesting rums for you to consider… ---

Hi Matthijs, You are lucky, the Netherlands has quite a decent market in that price range. For reference I am using Drankdozijn.nl which offers fair prices for standard bottles. And you could spread out your shipping costs over multiple bottles. Doorly’s 12 [RX212](https://rumx.com/en/rums/212/) 41 euro Mount Gay XO [RX2067](https://rumx.com/en/rums/2067/) 39 euro Wray & Nephew [RX5701](https://rumx.com/en/rums/5701/) 25 euro El Dorado 12 [RX9644](https://rumx.com/en/rums/9644/) 30 euro Havana Club Selección de Maestros [RX44](https://rumx.com/en/rums/44/) 38 euro Plantation 3 stars [RX116](https://rumx.com/en/rums/116/) 16 euro Plantation OFTD [RX323](https://rumx.com/en/rums/323/) 26 euro Smith & Cross [RX43](https://rumx.com/en/rums/43/) 25 euro Duppy Share white [RX11795](https://rumx.com/en/rums/11795/) 21 euro Eminente 7y [RX7273](https://rumx.com/en/rums/7273/) 50 euro Appleton 15 [RX9992](https://rumx.com/en/rums/9992/) 53 euro Union Coconut [RX8753](https://rumx.com/en/rums/8753/) 25 euro ---

Doorly’s is now at the top of my list. Thanks for the other suggestions. Smith & Cross is my favorite rum right now. Although i suspect that might change once I open my hampden 8 marks unaged bottles. ---

Yeah I did that, but a lot of those bottles are not available (or more expensive). Also i wanted a more condensed list, but seeing the many reactions here that didnt really work out lol. ---

Banneke unfortunately only ships to DE and AU. I will try to find some plantation single cask bottles then. Any favorites? There are quite a few it seems. ---

Yeah drankdozijn.nl is great! I actually own all the bottles you suggested 30 euros and below… moment of realisation. (Except union coconut) Im adding more costly suggestion to the wishlist. Thanks! ---

I agree with Worthy park single estate to begin with Jamaican (with some esters, or you’ll have to go to Appleton 12/15) and with El Dorado 15 and doorlys 12. But be careful to the El Dorado, this must not be the old bottles! Or it will be a lot sweetened. And very good to replace the doorlys 12, you’ve got the Shakara 12, which is very good, quite similar as a barbados rum and in a quite nice bottle.
