If white rum, fuck Bacardi and get Havana Club - very good Cuban Rum (availability in the US might be a problem...). It's old, but not all that different to a Cuban film maker or musician - very very characterful and a wee bit old fashioned. Best had neat and I'd say, without much (or none) for company. I've yet to taste the delicacies of Jamaica, Barbados or Trinidad though...

Anyways, for the time being, soon it will be



Kinda sad that it's discontinued. Best out of the JW range.

If you want to either (a) get extremely hammered or (b) win the approval of Jamaicans, then yes.

Blue is great.... but I would never spend the full 200+ on a blended scotch. Have not bothered with Green or Gold though.... see no point, once I got into Single Malt Scotch... all blended just seemed pointless to me.

Beers usually come in packs.

In terms of beer: 9 calories = 1 fat gram. So...
1 beer containing 150 calories = 16.6 fat grams
1 beer containing 100 calories = 11.1 fat grams

And in terms of alcohol, any drinker knows that 6.5% feels significantly more drunky than 4.2%. This, of course, can only be qualified by the individual user.

Regardless of the amount of beer that one consumes: for those drinking a shitty-tasting light (100 calorie) beer, the drinker gains 5.5 less fat grams than if they drink a nice-tasting, quality (150 calorie) beer.

So the question is: How many do they drink?

And that is, of course, up to the appetite of the drinker.

Then maybe you should start shaving more regularly.

Got one of these to try from my fav liquor store. Nice to delve into Belgian whites in the summer. Don't be a poseur and stick lemon in it though.
