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.

Rum Review: Rogue Spirits White Rum
Posted on May 23rd, 2010
I’ve had this sitting in the back of my cupboard for quite a while now. And, I’ll be honest, it’s because I didn’t like it when I bought it.
But my neighbor is practicing Chopin, so I’m in a good mood and I’m gonna give it another go.
Rogue Spirits is the distilling offspring of Rogue Ales. They produce two gins, a whiskey, and three rums. I’ve heard good things about their dark rum, but not much about the white. The bottle is clear and square; similar to a bottle of 10 Cane, except the sides are even, not wide and thin like the 10 Cane; and decorated with the likeness of Jean Lafitte, which gave it an extra positive mark in my book because it meets fills my need for pirates and my need for things related to New Orleans. The color of the rum inside is… well… pretty damn clear. I read a review that called it “straw” colored, but to say that is to admit you’ve never seen straw.
