I have 2 bottles of Berry Hill Pimento (Allspice) Liqueur available on my website http://www.reggaetreats.com

Well, I ordered a bottle less than three weeks ago, and wow, got it today. It is fantastic.

Now, I have to state this. Beachbum Berry has a recipe for a quick pimento dram on his website, and I regularly make an instant pimento syrup by grinding two small pimento berries in 1/4 oz of simple syrup and heating it for 15 seconds. While the Wray and Nephew is much smoother and quite drinkable right out of the bottle, once you get it into the drink, i.e. Nui Nui, the difference between the instant pimento dram and the W and N is less noticable. The biggest difference is the 50 dollars it cost me to have the bottle bought for and shipped to Palm Desert.

Am I glad I bought it. Yeh, but now in a big way. This bottle will last me for years, so I guess that's good. I was happier until I went through all my books and counted the number of drinks that need pimento liqueur. Hmmm, one hands not enough but two is more than enough.

For those who wondered if the bottle would really arrive, it did. I say, go for it. And now, I am going to make another Nui Nui - with real pimento liqueur for Jamaica. So take that ...
