flor de cana 4 - ?

they're all great for drinking.

i've only tried fdc 5 as perfume though.

portland's pearl specialty purchases:

el dorado 15
cockspur 12

this el dorado A+ again

i have earthshattering rum news

when you first open a bottle and take a whiff, you may not get an accurate representation of what the rum's like

i guess it's like wine. (fuck wine connoisseurs). let it breathe some and then smell, you get a better idea of what it's going to be like

starting from a really light one and then working my way darker to the blackstrap now makes me think that u get drunk in a different way vs. staying with the same thing all night

this sounds like a fun progression, but i never acquired an appreciation for rum.

yeah, me too except mojitos
but i will appreciate RUM vicariously

i'm not trying to talk anyone into anything, but if you were to try one please try flor de cane 5 year with soda water, fresh and bubbly, a nice juicy lime, and ice. one shot. measure it out. make no quick decisions. pass no judgement until the end of the first. by the start of the second you won't regre it

starting from a really light one and then working my way darker to the blackstrap now makes me think that i will feel like shit the whole next day

xp he's right, you know

may be coming around.

there was a show on history channel the other day called 'rum runners, bootleggers & moonshiners"

u know j i only like the barbancourt ok--the pyrat pistol was fantastic for sippin tho

word up

i always thought i hated barbancourt. something about the higher proof throws off the careful calibration of drinks.

it's worked this weekend though. the local liquor store is shit!

this guy got encased in rum!

^bad typing.

from kira:

hahaha funny story.

so brian got a job at this new restaurant in town and for some reason, they had to train him to serve alcohol even though he is too young. so i guess he was talking to his coworkers and the bartender about drinks and they were talking about drinks with rum and brian said something about a rum ricky. but i guess no one had any idea what he was talking about and the bartender said he had never heard of that drink before... haha so brian felt really stupid i guess, so he asked me about it and i told him that, yes indeed, it is a real drink. but i thought that was really funny and weird....

fdc7, i love you

ready..................

me too, get home, you

dang girl i gotta go east to go west first though

wend yer way, s'alright. just hope there's some left for you.
