Been meaning to post these for a while - AMAZING chocolates by the wonderful @sianpetter !

These truly were a delicious treat. A special series combining delectable hand made chocolates and sublime rums from the world renowned @foursquare_rum_distillery !

I can't properly put into words how tasty these were! The whole lot was devoured over a short period of time, even others who weren't a fan of rum or spirits in chocolate really liked these! The chocolate was delicious, the flavour combinations first-rate, and as a rum fan truly a delightful pairing with chosen rums!

Whilst these may be gone, do yourself a favour and check out @sianpetter and her website - www.exotictramp.co.uk ! If you are in need of a scrumptious treat it is definitely recommend to get some! 😋

This evening's updates are brought to you by day nine of the @drinksbythedram #dramvent calendar! Behind today's door was @zacaparum Ron Zacapa Centenario Sistema Solera 23 rum!

Comprised of rums aged 6 to 23 blended together using the Solera method. Goes down smooth
I remember buying a bottle of this many years ago, was probably the most expensive bottle I'd bought at the time and was a vast improvement over other things I was drinking back then! 😅

Alas palates change and now I find this a little too sweet but still pleasant and recommend it to people looking for a sweeter sipper.

#dramvent continues! On to day eight and a bit of an unknown for me (only ever seen a single bottle before)! Rhum Rhum PNG!
Having a search online brings up some interesting details and some big names in the rum/Rhum/spirits world!

Coming from the wonderful looking island of Marie Galante of the coast of Guadalupe its a Rhum agricole bottled at 41% made from varieties of sugar cane that had previously disappeared and uses traditional techniques for production.

I found this very enjoyable and and full of flavour. Something to check out in the future for sure!

The catch-up continues!

Day #7 brought a real treat! @doorlys.uk 14 year old rum! A real #Bajan beauty from @foursquare_rum_distillery !

I really enjoyed this, although I would have to say that as I already own a bottle of this top rum! Though I must sheepishly admit I made this tot into a delicious corn'n'oil!

Forgot to add - created a tasty little #Daiquiri with the @drinksbythedram #dramvent rum advent calendar sample of @rhumtroisrivieres Cuvee de L'Ocean! It certainly hit the spot, high on the delicious and refreshing scale! 😋

Playing catch-up with the posts but enjoyed the rums daily; this was day five of #dramvent !

@diplomaticorum Mantuano! Coming from Venezuela, bottled at 40% and made from a blend of column still, batch kettle and pot still rums its an easy sipper!

Check out @drinksbythedram / @masterofmalt if you want in on a calendar, theres many days to go before Christmas! Or @specialitybrand for more info on this bottle!

Yesterday's @drinksbythedram rum calendar revealed another beauty of a rum - @hampdenestaterum Pure Single Jamaican Rum!
46% Abv, no added sugar, all pot still distillates leads to that characteristic 'funkiness' that I love. Very flavorful and moreish!

Really like this rum, amazing on its own but I also like to use it in one of the best tasting #MaiTai cocktail recipes I've tried!

Have some rum, it is fun!
