Video Summary
AI GeneratedArmin and Derek from \"Make and Drink\" compare rare 1970s Jamaican rums, Myers's and Appleton Dark Deluxe, against modern versions. While the vintage Myers's excels in cocktails, the Appleton suffers from degradation. The tasting suggests that while historical rums offered superior complexity, high secondary market prices are often unjustified due to storage risks.
