How about an 'Ambachts Roestbikkertje' (Ambacht being my home port, and the rest could be translated as 'Little Rust-Chipper' ), a local herbal liqueur...

Ahoy thar' Cap'n Frankie -

How much rust does this fine spirit remove? Ain't got but so much rust left to be chipped these days.

Aye, we purchased a bottle of Ron Zaccapa 23 yr last week. It was on sale for $24 instead of the $78 retail. I love being in the trade routes.

It is simply....amazing!!

We had our favorite rum this weekend - Cruzan Black Strap Molasses Rum! Relatively inexpenive but what a taste! Like pancake syrup, but with authority. In fact Mr. Cannon tried some on his pancakes Sat morning.

FWIW - we were perforing in NYC thurs at some hoitey toitey society book signing. Up scale liquor store down stairs.

Now we all knew the prices were going to be high, and we guessed from out side the shop what might be the most expensive bottle they had. Marley guessed a wine, Cannon a congac, McQueen a rum. Me I guessed a bottle of single malt Scotch.

I won - a single bottle of one brand was ..... $5,500 US greenbacks! Sheesh , who could drink it?
