Sorry friends. I know it’s been a slow few days, but life-life has required too much of my attention to properly keep things in order here. There will be a return to normal next week.
New rating sytem.
Posted on June 10th, 2010
I’ve been in the habit of awarding random rum ratings that amused me, but maybe didn’t properly convey how I actually felt about a rum, so I’m going to stop that.
In place of that I’ve chosen to use this 50 point scale which will then translate into a rating out of 5:
- Package – 10 pts – The bottle, the label, the product name. The outward appearance of everything but the rum itself.
- Appearance – 10 pts – The rum itself. The color, the legs, the dead flies floating in it…
- Nose – 10 pts – The aroma, in the bottle, in the glass, in the toilet, whever…
- Taste – 10 pts – If I have to explain this there’s something wrong.
- Alcohol – 10 pts – This is awarded by default as long as there’s booze in it and I don’t get hungover, immediately throwup, or burn my vocal chords because of it. Things along those lines. Rounding out the 50 points. If you don’t see it mentioned in a review, assume nothing went wrong.
Now you know.
