lxy, Saturday, 25 October 2008 19:51 (fifteen years ago) link

i think there's a review linked upthread that talks about that rum and compares it to a $60 bottle that sounds better

jergins, Saturday, 25 October 2008 19:52 (fifteen years ago) link

also, santa teresa now costs $90. when we had it in may it was $38. wtf!

lxy, Saturday, 25 October 2008 19:54 (fifteen years ago) link

i'm drinking a mt. gay that i've never had before. can't really tell what its deal is. amber but (maybe) not aged? i don't know. i'm confused by it.

lxy, Sunday, 26 October 2008 02:27 (fifteen years ago) link

i also bought a bottle of fdc7 and

lxy, Sunday, 26 October 2008 02:29 (fifteen years ago) link

lxy, Sunday, 26 October 2008 03:40 (fifteen years ago) link

lxy, Sunday, 26 October 2008 03:51 (fifteen years ago) link

amon, Tuesday, 28 October 2008 02:21 (fifteen years ago) link

no, not extra old. it's the regular bottle, and the label says mt. gay barbados sugar cane rum. beige with a yellow map. i can't find it anywhere online, even on the mt. gay website.
