On the subject of a Mai Tai, how do people feel about Rumdood's rum combo?

His best combo calls for Appleton Estate 12 Year Old and Clement VSOP, which seem easily acquirable.

Mai Tai was definitely a consideration for my base drink since I read that blog about a month ago. Very scientific stuff :wink:

Anyway, in case you deceide to start with a TV's Mai Tai, try to buy quality ingredients right away.
Don't you happen to be in Berlin, Warboys? Get this orgeat: http://rum-depot.de/shop/hausbar/440/mandel-sirup-orgeat-frankreich
It's the best you can get in Germany.

I was actually in France for new year and picked this up. I didn't know if it was good or not, but I read that Monin was a bit crap and it was the only Orgeat I could find in a small suburb of Rouen.

Lucky, huh?
