"The production of rum, a comparatively new industry in the Philippine Islands, was interrupted by the war, and it may be years before full production is resumed. The distillation was light, similar to that of Puerto Rico, but the flavor was distinctive, faintly reminiscent of vanilla beans and herbs. Popular brands, prior to Pearl Harbor, were Tanduay and Panay." Glad to know that at least one of them has survived.
