Hey Sven, any chance you can bring back any of those exotic European rums home for a rum tasting? Now that would be a fun Rum Rhum Club!

Hoping Manuel and I can make it, but I won't know until closer to Friday...

All the rums we tried that Forrest talked about sans one, can't remember what it was though.

Agreed on all accounts...a great Rum Rhum Club featuring one of my favorite styles of rum: Jamaican. I was very excited to see Smith & Cross on the "menu". It's such a unique rum and really good to mix with. Huge thank yous to Forrest (the science of rum!), Marie, Amy, and the Tonga Hut for putting these events on.

And seeing Tom back in his photography pose just seemed right. Good to see you up and around again Tom!

The Deadhead Rum Rhum Club (2/24/13) gathering was a nice change of pace. Not that there is anything wrong with drinking 12 shots in a row of different types of pure rum, per se, but having a nice shot to sip and then sampling a couple of cocktails made from the same great rum was fun too! Forrest put on another stellar presentation in which he explained the history of the rum and sang its praises as he savored it with us. Here are some photos I snapped between sips of pure Deadhead rum, some wild banana concoction and Marie King's taste tempting cocktail made from Deadhead rum, tamarind, pepper and orange flavors.
