….Daughter staying for a couple of nights, she shares my liking for rum. Plenty of rum and Aussies being consumed.

Whilst delving at the bottom of the freezer for some sloes to make some sloe gin, I came across a bag of cherries I froze in the summer. Looking for some recipes I think I'll try one of these, and with the leftover stones, some Kirsch. Doesn't look exactly tasking.

Was driving a few Eastern Europeans to the Airport the last day and when they got off they gave me this. They said it's from Romania. Cap was fixed on cracked it open and its spirit of some sorts, some sort of pale whiskey if I was to guess. Anyone speak Romanian?.
Or turpentine?.

Some samples from my travels. This is a very sweet but quite delicious hazelnut liqueur from Germany:

Lovely after dinner treat.
Then we found an ace back street cocktail bar last night called Mentors run by a couple of Albanian lads who know their mixology and their togger. Been invited to watch FC Drita if we're ever in Kosovo:

Anyways, they did a perfect dry martini for herself and a wicked Old Fashioned for me. Ended the night with a double slug of Ron Zacapa XO which was splendid indeed.

Nocciola Haselnusslikör
Ein Gaumengenuss der besonderen Art. Dieser ausgewogene Haselnusslikör besticht durch den Anteil an Haselnussgeist in Kombination mit den leichten Vanillenuancen und der adäquaten Süße.

Four quid for a Bushmills yesterday. Admittedly, it's a while since last I bought one in a pub, but thought that it was a bit steep. Probably my inner stinginess manifesting itself once more.
Very commendable effort from Washington Island, Wisconsin. Spicy with a predominant aniseed/fennel flavour. Excellent gin.
Tonight's mixology - Black Forest Martinis

Look spot on them mate. Might try a few mixologists later on. Currently liking an old fashioned or 6.
All the best for 2023.
Cheers fella, you too!!
Rum recommendations please - another Rum Company voucher going on Liverpool Lost Dock pineapple spiced Rum unless anyone can convince me otherwise.
How much have you got to spend mate?
Voucher for £50 I think, prob not quite enough for 2 bottles without topping up. Last year I got the Lost Dock spiced pineapple and the lost dock dark spiced.
