Lemon Hart Overproof 151 Rum

Packs power with taste - a necessary ingredient in many tiki recipes from Donn and Vic, not to mention our favorite from Martin Cate called the 2070 Swizzle, derived from equal amounts of Angostura 1919 rum and Lemon Hart 151 (as in add the numbers together). Full recipe in the Smuggler’s Cove book.

I like to pour a snoot of this alongside the Demerara Dry Float (Smuggler's Cove: Exotic Cocktails, Rum, and the Cult of Tiki). This scrappy little rum delivers big on flavor and warms you up. Spicy and sweet, rich mouthfeel and smoother than you'd expect for the octane.

Buy it. Buy it now.

Smooth and complex, rich and powerful. I'm shocked to see half the bottle gone already. Blend a little of this with a Jamaican rum in your next Mai Tai and strap in son, you're going for a ride!

From nearly forgotten nights(yet memorable) at Don the Beachcombers.. This is what you need to try to duplicate those wonderful Tiki drinks.
