Well, I happened to find Bols Blue Curaçao at a local store the other night, but I came home with Stiggins' Fancy and Xaymaca instead.

As for the Bum and curaçao, in Remix's Ingredient Glossary he says, "Marie Brizard and Senior Curacao are best, followed by Bols," then goes on to praise Bols Dry Curacao, which uses rum over brandy as it's base. Maybe that's why he would prefer it to Pierre Ferrand?

Thanks for the clarification. Guess I was mistaken. I thought when he posted about the $100 Mai Tai, Pierre Ferrand was the suggested orange liqueur, but I can't find evidence of that. I'm still having a hard time thinking the Bols dry curacao is any different in flavor than their blue varietal, which I wouldn't allow near my good rums. Someone please convince me otherwise.
