I would probably have a nice, appropriate wine with dinner and a scotch or aged rum as a digestif.

TropicCh3f, I had St. Nicholas Abbey for the first time in October and loved it. The only problem with this rum is availability. As far as I know, you can only buy it from the distillery in Barbados. It's worth the trip, though!!!

I like the Pyrat XO, but the Pyrat Pistol is just too flowery for me. If you like smooth, sweet rums, Ron Zacapa 23 may also be of interest. It's widely available and should run about $50 a liter.
