Rum
Purchase Price: $22
Place of Purchase: Warehouse - New York, NY
Rating: 8.4
As rich and sweet on the palate as molasses flecked with flakes of 24 karat gold. This drink really gets up and goes, treating anyone fortunate enough to sip it to various fruits, flowers and spices. It really does hearken back to the days when the high seas were dangerous places to be, but it’s far more refined than rum your average deck-swabbing pirate might slug down. This was definitely kept in the Captain’s Quarters only. And--is that a rare blue macaw on the label? Indeed it is. A lovely bird for a lovely rum. From Barbados, an island that always seems to get this particular spirit right.
