For those who have found it, was it the gift box style packaging? What location? I may try to hit up another TJ's later if I have time.
I've had a decent amount of aged rum, and I think Flor de Caña 12 and 18 drink way better than this. It's pretty hot at 45% abv and does not drink smoothly. It's aged in bourbon and I love bourbon but I don't love this. It's worth $40 but definitely nowhere near its retail price. If you have snobby friends who only care for the number of years aged on a bottle and fancy bottling, this is a great bottle for them. I do not consider this a SlickDeal. I've had private label bottlings of blended rums in the 8-12 year range that blow this out of the water in complexity. It's interesting for what it is but not super compelling imho.
My n=1 $0.02.
