not boring if it's what you like though, eh? if i liked coke i'd probably drink rum and coke, too. instead, it's soda-lime for me.
(tru confession: when i first drank rum i drank it with TAB!!!1 LOLOLOLLLOOOOOLLLL!!! probably why i hated rum for long time??!)
(uhh, that makes me seem v v old, doesn't it. but i guess i am, so....)
i think we had a different kind of pusser's before, but not that variety. jergins, do you recall? i think the name is off-putting.

that pyrat isn't quite as dark as it looks in the picture, but it's a pretty good one.
the packaging cannot be denied, though. i'm a sucker for the swank.
― lxy, Tuesday, 6 November 2007 18:05 (sixteen years ago) link
i wasn't too taken with the appleton last night. it was fine but not great. come to think of it, the cockspur didn't really do anything for me either. what is going on?
jesus, am i going to have to start drinking bourbon full time??? makes me feel weird just to say it.

Zaya: inchoative verb form meaning flat, as in
Extraña, esta soda del club es zaya.

― lxy, Friday, 16 November 2007 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link
found that ron zacapa at $38 a bottle (klwines.com) + shipping which is actually a little less than i thought it'd be.
― jergins, Friday, 16 November 2007 22:28 (sixteen years ago) link

haven't had zacapa, at least not to remember. maybe at a bar once.
what about that el dorado? have you had it? the word demerara scares me. i'm curious if they all seem like poison, or if it's lemon hart.
― lxy, Saturday, 17 November 2007 18:39 (sixteen years ago) link
^or if it's just lemon hart.
we bought a hell of a lot of rum this last couple of days.

from the back of the mount gay barbados sugar cane rum bottle:
Homage to the Cane With sugar cane having been for so long the lifeblood of Mount Gay, and, one might suggest, of Barbados as well, it's fitting that a great rum should commemorate its qualities. [...]
Consistently smooth. Full-bodied. Unique. A homage to the cane.

i do not think i appreciate Rogue Hazelnut Spiced Rum.
it might be good in banana bread, but it's not good with soda and lime.
― lxy, Thursday, 3 January 2008 06:18 (sixteen years ago) link
aw that's too bad. thanks to jj anyway
― jergins, Friday, 4 January 2008 00:14 (sixteen years ago) link
oh yes, i should clarify: i appreciate the gift of the rum. it just doesn't work in a rickey.
j passed along the suggestion of making a dark and stormy with it. we should try.
― lxy, Friday, 4 January 2008 02:36 (sixteen years ago) link
tonight i am going to enjoy some rum, but i don't know yet what kind. options in the cupboard are:

Sea Wynde is an astonishing marriage of five pure pot still rums from these countries.
seems fucked up that they'd have to combine so many. what does that say? ONE BARREL
