California Love

Yes, the obligatory introductions section, but serves a good purpose - like a good, soft toilet paper - used only once but truly wonderful! "Here's to you and here's to me, may we never disagree - if perchance we ever do, here's to me and to hell with you!"

California Love

Post by Rum Warrior »

Hi! I'm from the San Francisco Bay Area.

My love for rum stems from my love of Caribbean culture. I got into rum as part of my preparation for dancing in carnival parades, since responsible drinking is a big part of the experience.

My name comes from one of my favorite drinking songs from Barbados:

I like overproof and aged rum.

My favorite cocktail ingredients are:

lime juice
ginger beer
coconut water
pineapple juice
soursop juice
coconut milk
passion-orange-guava juice
mango juice
falernum
bitters
fresh-squeeze citrus
orgeat
pomegranate syrup
nutmeg
mint
cinnamon
ginger
sorrel

As far as other alcohol goes:
I like darker beers like stouts, porters, and amber ales.
I like bourbon
I like wine (we have a lot of good ones out here)

In general, I like nature and culture.

Thanks for reading!

So sorry to hear of the climate influenced, massive fires that have destroyed many fine wines/wineries.

Welcome...
