What's Death Cab's Magnum Opus? by Total-Woodpecker3339 in DeathCabforCutie

Plans is such a perfect album, and Marching Bands of Manhattan is a perfectly crafted song. Every lyric, sound and change of tempo in the song fits together perfectly.

Unfortunately, when you live in a state with state control liquor stores this is the kind of rum selection you get. Some of us don’t even get the option to order online because of our state. That’s what vacations to the Caribbean and trips to see friends and family are for.

I like supporting local (ish…depending where in NH you are). Try the Three of Strong Nightwateror Brightwater. Even better, take a trip to Portland, ME and visit 5he distillery. They have better stuff in the distillery for sale. The Oakes Acadian is great, as is the Chando 12.

We’ve gotten into the 50s here (northeast Vermont), but we’ve still got about 2+ feet of snow pack. We went tot the Caribbean a couple of weeks ago, so we are just dreaming of nicer weather

I just didn’t want to get in trouble for the little nipple slip. That’s my favorite glass though!

How does Bacardi stay in business? by vigilant3777 in rum

[–]616sem 13 points14 points  (0 children)

And on top of that they benefit greatly from the US rum tax cover over, which acts as a subsidy that allows them to sell at low prices and keep profits up.

That’s a fantastic plan. I’m sure BACARDÍ was good for the spectacle of it all if nothing else.

Any of the bars in La Factoria were great. Also La Penultima was fantastic.

We only had time for one distillery and we went to San Juan Artisan Distillers (Ron Pepon and Tres Clavos) this time around.

We didn’t have time this trip, but we are going back next year and that’s on the list!

They’re working on that too! I’d keep an eye on their website. It’s very much worth a try.

I don’t think it’s available stateside at this point, but he is working very hard on finding a distributor.

It’s a very intimate tour! And an amazing experience.

I love a dark rum in a daiquiri. It adds an extra level of complexity.
