Map your location for others to see

[Edward Hamilton]

Member map (http://www.ministryofrum.com/forums/../member.php) I have completely recoded the map feature and am moving data from the old tables to a new database. If you have previously entered your location you don't have to do anything.

If you would like to have your rum store, bar or distillery added to the map, add them after you register on the forum and the trade registry. Just fill out the profile then the map can link to your profile. And as always suggestions are appreciated.

Very cool.

Some of the distillery locations are approximate, but if you see one which is grossly inaccurate please contact me. And as every mariner knows, this is not to be used for navigation.

Great new feature Ed! Thanks for adding it. The satellite view default page works for me, and the hybrid overlay is very helpful when zooming in for a closer look.

Google earth links for distilleries would be cool.

There are a number of things I'm working on. One of them is a link to distilleries through the other pages of this site. Currently if there is a flag on the country page of this site, clicking on it will take you to a map of that country. Here's an example for Antigua and Barbuda (http://ministryofrum.com/countrydetails.php?c=3). I'll be adding distillery links on those pages as time permits.

I've updated the member map feature to make it easier to add your location. Just click on the link under the member map (http://www.ministryofrum.com/forums/../member.php).

In my search for a source of Cacique rum from Venezuala I discovered, much to my surprise, that a company in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada was importing keg volumes of Diplimatico from Venezuala. They are decanting into near identical bottles to the ones sold in Venezuala and selling this product at $36 a bottle ( 26 0z. ) in all B.C. liquor stores. Now while I don't have the most discerning pallet in the world by any stretch I did a taste comparison with some of my remaining Diplimatico that I got in 2009 while in Venezuala. I could not discern any difference. My wife also had the same conclusion. I hope this is useful to some of the membership. Cheers.
