Oh, I dunno.  Bacardi Select is a decent premium dark rum.  Bacardi's amber
is more than OK for mixed drinks.  Here in NYC Bacardi is a bargain,
compared with other good rums - the Puerto Rican influence?  It's strange,
since Cruzan (St Croix) is priced up with Appleton's.  You can't get
Pusser's.

I thought the RN rum ration was diluted 1:5 with bilge water?  Rum and
water is NOT my cup of tea, so to speak.

Oh, and remind me.  The carrier that blew up was mishandled aircraft
ordnance on the flight deck?  The battleship was dropped primer in a main
turret?
