Masterclass Dept: by Ralfy!

Post by Capn Jimbo »

Does it get any better than this? Maybe just perhaps, but at not at any reasonable cost...

The more astute among you are aware (a) that Ralfy exists, (b) that he is an honest broker, buys his own product, hates the dilution of spirits by mega-corporations and (c) calls shit.... shit. Some of you may also know he's done a few bits and pieces about rum and tasting and each precious tidbit can enhance our ongoing educations.

Finally it appears, Ralfy has congealed his valuable knowledge into his own version of a masterclass, in which he also discusses "masterclasses". It's a series of:

Bottom Line...


I love Ralfy with not a single reservation. If I were gay and even if weren't, no matter, I'd marry him anyway in a one of the growing number of US states that allow it. Perhaps we could even have a threesome with Rachel Maddow, who is a lover of cane juice rums (another copyrighted CJ factoid).

But in a microsecond of sanity and seriousness may I suggest you that before you start taking this class - and you must! - start by listening to the first two minutes of the last episode in which Ralfy makes clear his feelings about the industry and its branding - an attitude with which a number of you - and moi - would find great favor.

Then take the class. A suggestion - might it not be a clever idea to assemble a small group of Project idiots to take the class together, and to then comment on each class? I think so, but then again when the fack did I rule the world, or even the block I live on...

Kindly respond...

Will do when the internet gestapo renew my bandwidth allowance at the start of next month.
