Spike's done an awesome job galvanizing the Breezeway community around the launch. Glad to see it mentioned here.

@makeanddrink 26 дней назад

Wow SPOILER ALERT... haven't even released that video yet. For the record, I do have an extra Ten to One on hand. It's great!

I'm jealous you already snagged an Equipoise. I very much look forward to seeing your Foursquare video.

I got my first bottle of Rum Fire last week. I made a nuclear daiquiri with it and it's a total banger 😵 everything is ready this week to finally try the Rum Firewalker 😬 thank you for sharing your passion in such a pleasing way. Your channel and Derek's are really top tier in the rum/cocktail game 👏

@therumrevival 24 дня назад

Thank you! And congrats on taking the rum fire plunge lol - Brace yourself for the Firewalker!

@WhoKnowsNose 25 дней назад

The Breezeway blend makes a fantastic daiquiri! No arguments there. However, it does seem to get lost pretty easily in other cocktails. I've tried a few different drinks and really couldn't taste it at all, which is a bummer because it really is a tasty rum.

@therumrevival 23 дня назад

That's good to know. I figured it would be a bit on the lighter side but wasnt' sure how much of the jamaican dominated. I'm finally cracking it open this weekend so I'll put it through its paces.

@deepflavor5906 26 дней назад

Great video, I like how you didn't just get rare finds but common shelfers. Seems like the only rum never missing from the shelf is rum fire, totally understandable because I did the same getting a flask before getting the big bottle. Will you ever do a Q/A video? Are you a bartender? What kind of work you do outside youtube?

@therumrevival 24 дня назад

Yep, always have to have Rum Fire on hand. I like the idea of doing a QA. Maybe if I hit 5k subscribers or something, I'll do one. Maybe as a live stream, perhaps?

@ultimatemaitai 25 дней назад

I was a little on the fence with the Breezeway blend but really enjoyed it in a Mai Tai. Might be good for cocktail newbies to compare with something in the same range but different, like Ham 86.

@markg7508 26 дней назад

You’re gonna need a bigger bar display. Dominican makes some delicious rums, I recommend the Barcelo imperial. It’s amazing, and they have multiple variations, onyx, maple, port, and a Japanese wood finish. Check them out my friend.

@therumrevival 24 дня назад

Whoa thats quite the rum. DOK is definitely a rum worth trying. How'd this one turn out?

@johnheintz3206 22 дня назад

That’s a great intro to DOK, better than the one in the 8 marks IMO. Be sure to save a little bit of it for later in case you come by some aged DOK, makes for a great side-by-side comparison!

@jjlundy1188 23 дня назад

For the amburana cachaca, my fav cocktail is the "iz bananaz" recipe from punch. And i also recently bought a pint of rum fire, but only so i could make vanilla extract with it. I saw somewhere on instagram a recipe that infuses the vanilla for 9 months. I couldnt find that recipe again, so i just added 4 pods to the pint + the scraped beans, and im gonna let it sit and see if it makes some interesting desserts

@therumrevival 22 дня назад

Recently acquired the Equipoise, which was pretty great on the first pour and only gets better with subsequent pours. I think I'd also put it a tad above Touchstone on the ECS list, but maybe slightly below Sovereignty and its ex-sherry cask goodness.

I could see trying the yearly releases together, like 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010, or trying some of the even older ex-bourbon ECS side by side in a blind, or mixing up the two groups.

I just picked up a bottle of Breezeway Blend myself this week. The Jamaican portion of it has a note that comes across to me as olive brine, and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. Next bottles on my to-try list for daiquiris and mojitos are Ten to One and Barbancourt Haitian Proof.

@nathangrover1655 26 дней назад

Love these vids! Thank you, Arminder. Over the past couple months I picked up, on your recommendation, a bottle of Clarin Sajous. (I was new to sipping sugar cane spirits and this was challenging at first, but I've kept returning to a 'ti punch with it and I really like it now). I also more recently picked up, I think also on your recommendation, St. Benevolence aged, which is very lovable. I've recently begun growing my own mint and I'm curious if you've got a good rec for a mojito rum. (My go-so far is Probitas.) Or, if you have any other mint cocktail/spirit recs, my ears are shucked. Keep on revivalin'!

@unansweredprayer1122 26 дней назад

i ordered the clairin sajous just a couple days ago. i look forward to my first taste next week.

@izzygrey2724 26 дней назад

I"m so glad to hear that you've enjoyed the Sajous. One of my favorite. And that St. B aged clairin is such a treat. In terms of a mojito, Probitas has usually been my go to. However, lately I've really been enjoying the Ten to One White Rum. Its got a good amount of jamaican flavor. In terms of other mint cocktails, check out the Queens Park Swizzle.

Yeah, I've never been the biggest fan of the Gold either, though I have enjoyed the Blonde which is what part of the breezeway blend is.

@jarrod-smith 26 дней назад

Man I need that Bira! We sort of specifically collect Fijian rum. Yeah to the Killik! Friends and I just killed my first bottle over Memorial Day weekend. It’s way up there for me in a daiquiri. I get buttered popcorn notes off it. Think about a popcorn jelly belly next time you sip it.

@therumrevival 25 дней назад

Ha, will keep the jelly belly in mind.

@unansweredprayer1122 26 дней назад

dead reckoning is a bottler that i have been eyeing for months, but i have yet to go through with a purchase, simply because the selections i am most interested in are not in my usual price range. would you say the killik is a worthy neat sipper, or would you suggest a different selection? also, unrelated, but i recently tried the kōhana kea in espresso, and it is phenomenal. if you have yet to try it, and if you enjoy espresso, i would suggest trying agricole in espresso. it really brings out the deeper notes of both drinks. great video as always, arminder.

@therumrevival 24 дня назад

In terms of a Dead Reckoning sipper, I'd check out one of their aged rums instead of the killik. I did do a first impression on a few of them on my patreon a couple of months back. My memory isn't the best, but I think I enjoyed the South Pacific. Also, i love a good espresso and will definitely try the kea in one. Never thought to do that so thanks!

@unansweredprayer1122 24 дня назад

@@therumrevival perfect. the south pacific was the one i was most interested in trying, so this gives me more incentive to buy. thanks, and i hope you enjoy the kea espresso.

I recently picked up Rum Fire and the Breezeway Blend, I have not tried the Rum Fire yet.. The Breezeway blend smells and tastes of ripe/green bananas, it's good in a daiquiri but it would be interesting to see if you had any thoughts where else it could be used. Thanks!

I know I tried an old fashioned with the Privateer bottle absolutely amazing. But open to any other suggestions 😅

@f2343 25 дней назад

I also never tried the Appleton signature, I always think coruba rum is better. What are your thoughts 💭

@therumrevival 23 дня назад

I think of signature and coruba as different types of rums. The coruba is much more molasses forward and Id use it in recipes that specifically call for a dark jamaican rum. The signature is much lighter and fruiter in comparsion.

@therumrevival 23 дня назад

I really like the Legacy. Definitely try an old fashioned with it, but also check out other spirit forward cocktails like a manhattan or a sazerac

Tiki Lover's white 100 proof makes good Daiquiri's and it's non chill filtered and no additives. I bought 5 of them a couple of years ago at K&L on closeout for $10 each and I should have bought a case because of the price. To me nothing touches Probitas for Daiquiri's. Ron Colon 111 proof makes good Daiquiri's but it's overpriced for what it is and glad I got it on closeout at K&L for $28.

At a suggested ratio of 5 to 6 parts bourbon to 1 part ginger whiskey. Try that combo and tell me that didn't make an immediate and impressive difference to your bourbon.🍻

@Decky1991live 25 дней назад

Forgive me Arminder, for I have bought more rum. It has been several weeks since my last confession. I saw a 7 year old Beenleigh by Oldman Spirits. I got it because it was the Quokka Edition. I defy you to look at the label and not buy it. I also eyed a 12 year old cask strength Cuban from Dram Mór. I'm unsure of how much the embargo effects you folks, hailing as I do from the UK, but cask strength Cubans are hard to come by, I believe some local regulations there about bottling strength. Finally, I gave my hard earned coin to the Transcontinental Rum Line for their 7 year old Beenleigh too. The only one I've opened. Very Australian. Eucalyptus and fig pudding. Nice.

@therumrevival 23 дня назад

That Quokka edition label is amazing lol I need that bottle. The few cask strength Cubans I've tasted have been absolutely delightful. Unfortunately the embargo means we have to ship them from out of the country which gets expensive. That TCRL Beenlieght is quite nice and that reminds me that I should get a bottle. Thanks for sharing your recent purchsaes!

Have you considered making a video or videos focusing on rum brands and bottles that prioritize sustainability, environmental friendliness, and social responsibility. Given that rum production, originating from cane juice in tropical areas, can contribute to deforestation and biodiversity loss, it's crucial to highlight brands that mitigate these impacts. Additionally, considering rum's historical ties to slavery, identifying brands that have moved away from this legacy would be valuable information. Topics like these would greatly enrich your channel content and is something that is missing in rums exploration on RU-vid.
