Hurricane Hayward's V.4 151 Swizzles in my neighbors pool. He rated it a 9.5 out of ten. I've never rated anything above an 8.5 including $100 Mai Tai, jet pilots, zombies, etc til I made one of these a couple weeks ago. I gave it and still give it a solid 9. 10 is the unobtainable. So basically this is about as perfect as a drink can get. Great work sir! I just hope my supply of Kohola Bay and LH151 don't diminish too soon.

Mahalo Mike! Be careful you don't tip that over. That would be a shame.

I only have a handful of "10" ratings in my book ... Zombie, Barrel O' Rum, et al. My reasoning is that in my mind, these are perfect cocktails as they are and could not be improved, hence the 10 rating. I've never tasted a "10" Mai Tai, but Vic's original with 17-year-old Wray & Nephew might come close.

You never know, though. Someone may one day turn something up to "11". One louder.
