Guess I'm spoiled. After visiting Barbados and going to the Mont Gay Rum Distillery, I have found theirs to be among the best in the Caribbean. Especially, their Extra Old - it's wonderful rum.

Tortuga is not a premium rum and I guess I've just become accustomed to the better rums down there.

But you're right about the prices. Although often the ship may be having a special, it's always wise to know the prices on shore before making a purchase on ship. We've usually found the price for the premium tequila, especially Patron, is often cheaper on ship. So it depends on exactly what you're looking for. But as far as alcohol goes, it's tough to beat the prices in San Juan.
