Rum
Purchase Price: $18
Place of Purchase: Astor Wine and Spirits - New York, NY
Rating: 1.0
My first "drain pour" ever and thus the lowest score ever, this stuff is so syrupy-sweet and hard to swallow I can't even get a handle on it four months later. It should be elementary--I like rum a lot and I like vanilla. And I especially like when vanilla is added to some everyday item to produce something of lasting culinary value. Some of my favorite “treats” are vanilla ice cream, vanilla Coke, and even the ultra-rare vanilla-flavored Sour Gummi Bears. So I was expecting this vanilla-fortified rum to be a drink for the ages—a Shawn Kemp slam-dunk. Well, what’s being peddled here is more like a Craig Ehlo airball. I just can’t deal…
