		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been in the habit of awarding random rum ratings that amused me, but maybe didn&#8217;t properly convey how I actually felt about a rum, so I&#8217;m going to stop that.
In place of that I&#8217;ve chosen to use this 50 point scale which will then translate into a rating out of 5:

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been in the habit of awarding random rum ratings that amused me, but maybe didn&#8217;t properly convey how I actually felt about a rum, so I&#8217;m going to stop that.</p>
<p>In place of that I&#8217;ve chosen to use this 50 point scale which will then translate into a rating out of 5:</p>
<ul>
<li>Package &#8211; 10 pts &#8211; The bottle, the label, the product name. The outward appearance of everything but the rum itself.</li>
<li>Appearance &#8211; 10 pts &#8211; The rum itself. The color, the legs, the dead flies floating in it&#8230;</li>
<li>Nose &#8211; 10 pts &#8211; The aroma, in the bottle, in the glass, in the toilet, whever&#8230;</li>
<li>Taste &#8211; 10 pts &#8211; If I have to explain this there&#8217;s something wrong.</li>
<li>Alcohol &#8211; 10 pts &#8211; This is awarded by default as long as there&#8217;s booze in it and I don&#8217;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&#8217;t see it mentioned in a review, assume nothing went wrong.</li>
</ul>
<p>Now you know.</p>
