Sven, I wholeheartedly agree. I notice many "craft cocktail" focused places calling anything with rum "tiki," which is obviously quite off base. That being said, there is an increased focus on rum drinks, which is good, unfortunately often this includes a bastardization of said cocktail, which is bad. I think Humu's talk along with others writing/ speaking about this could help educate many about this issue- which should create some better cocktails along the way, too (win-win).
