That’s a decent drink. Easy sipping rum, well worth the money. Enjoy and be surprised in the morning, by looking at the bottle(what’s left), then realising how easy it went down 😁

Decent mouth wash. I drunk to much el dorado versailles(63%) last night so a night off tonight.  
It’s a lovely drink, but stupid money, so it’ll be a one off.

I can recommend a decorator to come in put that shelf straight if you want.

Looks like Chippendale compared with my efforts. My old woodwork teacher at school,(lovely man incidentally), used to call me Chippendale. When i mentioned this to my old man he fell about laughing, which puzzled me. This was before i understood what irony meant!

I like Atlantico but you can get that cheap enough here and might be a bit ‘light’ for some tastes. Something by Brugal or Bodegas is a good bet.

About £50 a bottle and it’s lovely. Starts with a caramel taste(but not too sweet) and then the other flavours come through. It’s dangerous though, as it goes down far too easily.  
I have none left 😢
