william kents top ten rums

[version]

@version what are you sipping on brother

A mug of water.

 

[william_kent]

this was on "offer" at my local SPAR ( for our American cousins this means it was cheap at the local shop )

Lovecraftian label

if you like ice cream you'll probably enjoy this

I'd drunk a 3/4 full bottle of Havana Club especial before I opened this so

every post I have made since 6 pm 7th march 2023 is probably suspect and prone to intoxication

I think I may have started on some "Kenny" anecdotes, normally a sign that I need to retire to my bed

edit: KRAKEN SPICED RUM

RE: Kraken

I don't really care now, because it tastes nice, but according to previous experience, there are additives in this rum that will not agree with me and I will have a blinding headache in the morning..

Honestly not much of a rum drinker, mostly just have hard alcohol when its part of a cocktail.

you better get started then if you want to be part of rum club

I did a blind tasting of all my rums last night and I went 2/5 and woke up really hungover

Theyre all fantastic, except for maybe the pussers which last night I thought was a little too sweet and brittle
