Dedicated to the Understanding and Appreciation of the Noble Spirit - Rum

More than 25 years ago I launched this website to share my first-hand rum research with the world.
As the internet has evolved with more malicious bots, spammers and hijackers I've worked to keep up and now it is time to rebuild this site.
In the meantime, please forgive broken links while I work to bring this whole site up to the latest code that will better serve all of us who enjoy rum.

A bloody war or a sickly season.
