Greetings from Boston

[Brian]

I've been lurking around on the forum for a while and decided now is the time to starting posting. Live just south of Boston and I'm a history buff. I find the history of rum is fascinating and enjoy the drinking it neat. Currently, I'm drinking Goslings Old Rum and just cracked a bottle of Hurricane (made in this neck of the woods). I collect bottles of pre-pro and vintage booze and I'm starting to focus in on rum.

Greetings to all!

Welcome to the forums Brian - I am a New Englander by birth and have been long fascinated with rum's place in the regions history.

You'll find lots of great knowledge and discussion here!

Welcome to the forums Brian. The early economy of colonial America was certainly focused on rum and was inextricably linked to the Caribbean.
