Rum Malternatives
from Whisky Snobs of Lower MoCo · host Whisky Snobs of Lower MoCo
Scotch and bourbon drinkers are exploring the fascinating world of rum in droves.

In this episode, we jump right into tasting Haitian, Jamaican, and Fijian rums. Join us for a lively discussion about molasses, rhum agricole, hogo, dunder, muck, and more! This episode’s drams are: Clairin Le Rocher, 46.5% ABV 2011 Habitation Velier "Hampden - LFCH", 60.5 ABV Plantation 2009 Fiji, 44.8% ABV #clairin #haitianrum #jamaicanrum #hogo Dram in good health!
