Here comes the third and last step about how our rum is packaged, without having anything to do with the content.Never buy a bottle because of a fancy box, but isn’t it great to find something real good in a in a good looking box. It will be a Jewel in your rum bar just as a good looking bottle or label. That’s at least what I thinks when building up my private rum bar.Unfortunately I believe that fancy boxes affects the price more than nice looking labels or bottles, except for crystal bottles.My choices is:The simple wooden box here represented by Depaz Grande Reserve XO (old bottle).The large wooden box with the special stand inside that contains Legendario 15yo.Finally, the Pull-Out box here represented by my most fancy one containing the Havana Club Union.

Valinch & Mallet have released the spirit of the art series. Nice paintings that looks like an artwork in a frame. I don't have them, but I like how they look.

Looks great when they are put together, vomi. I like paintings on the boxes, for example on the Velier Clairin’s.

I like boxes with photos. Savanna Wild Island Edition is great and I like also the Caroni employee releases.Plantation Extreme releases are also great, when you can complete a picture from four boxes.

Bravo Stefan, great topic again. My favourites: The "La Maison Du Rhum" bottlings, packed with wooden slats. The wooden and leather coated Malteco shrine. The original mid '90 tin box from my first Jamaica rum love.

Yeah, no idea if I will ever even try HC Maximo. Reviews told me I would probably like it (but probably not love) but the price is just extremely high.

Kudzey, I also like the old Diplomatico Ambassador “Wardrobe box”, but unfortunately I doesn’t own one. Having just the newer “Pull-out box”. I also like the “Open-up boxes” used by Appleton Joy and English Harbour 1981. The Maximo looks of course great, but I can’t see myself buying it within the foreseeable future.

So as I mentioned, I like solid wardrobe-like boxes like the old Diplomatico Ambassador edition. I also like the boxes of Appleton Joy and Havana Club Maximo. I'm really curious what feature of rums is next on your list Stefan :)
