Hey /ck/
Valentine's is soon. I just moved to Spain and I've been dating a guy for about a month now (so clearly we don't know each other too well.)
I really like him and want to get him something nice for Valentine's. Normally I'd bake since that's my thing but he hates sweets, and he's a much better cook than I am so cooking is out of the question (Spanish cuisine is brand new to me as well. ) I decided on buying him alcohol and a card because Spaniards love drinking and he's no exception.
Well, the catch is that I've never drank alcohol in my life. I know absolutely nothing about it. So I want your help. His favorite alcohol is rum so I decided on that. I asked him in specifics (casually so he wouldn't get the idea I was up to something) and he said his favorite was "brugal, or ron barceló
but there are better ones, out of my range."
So /ck/, what is a rum similar to that taste but nicer. I am willing to spend a bit of money but ~40 euro is my absolute maximum budget for a bottle of a drink. Something that says "Happy Valentine's Day" that he'd appreciate but not something ridiculous/over the top.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks /ck/.

Every time. Every single time.
How you should have asked:
>hey /ck/, I'm buying a bottle of rum as a gift. I have a €40 budget. Any ideas?
What, do you think different types of beverages are inherently manly or girly? It's not that way for any drink, rum included.

I didn't really think it through too much, it's 0200 and I was just rambling about my predicament. I feel like people give different alcohol on certain occasions and I wanted to justify my choice of rum and be specific about it.
I guess you are right though, I added way too much information, sorry anon.

Literally everything this guy said.
Why the fuck do we need a life story? I don't care if you love or just like the nigger. Just ask what is good rum, specifying not just your average booze you get to drink for the weekend. Nobody here gives a rat's ass that he's Spanish or whos whats.

Internet says Appleton Estate is a good rum though I don't know how much it cost.

Ausfag here, I don't know what the pricing is compared to Ausfailia but I'll give you some options.
Ron Zacapa 23
Angostura 1919 (While the 5 and 7 are good as well, this is their most available premium blend)
Flor De Cana (Get the 7yo or above)
If he likes mixing AND quality (though slightly oxymoronic) Goslings Black Seal is a decent drop.
Havana Club 7 Anos is delicious, treat like a sweet scotch.
Those are some of your more basic ones, should be relatively easy to find.
