As I have been exploring the world of rum I find that Pyrat XO Reserve is my standby rum for all rum cocktails. If it doesn't work well for Pyrat it probably won't work for me. As I have currently fallen for Fernet-Branca as well I decided to mix the two into a cocktail that seemed to take me back home to a simpler time.
