Pyrat Rum

Pyrat Rum

Yarr! If you’re looking for treasure, be advised that Pyrat defintely does not way, hey, blow the man down.
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Whaler's Dark Rum

Whaler's Dark Rum

Cat's out of the bag, reader: you might have noticed that this is a “review” site. And in the context of a “review” site, talking about a bottle like Whaler's is thorny.
Overall Rating: ★★☆

Tanqueray Ten

Tanqueray Ten

A citrus-forward gin by one of the big boys that’s better than it has any right to be. Absolutely stupendous stuff.
Overall Rating: ★★★

Bloom Gin

Bloom Gin

Bloom is a very pretty gin with a subtle and unexpected mean streak. Like a lot of the pretty ones, I suppose.
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Broker's Gin

Broker's Gin

Before you go home with another fifth of Sapphire, consider this bottle instead. Broker's is a fun, hard-working gin that can make for a superlative mixer, depending on the night you have planned.
Overall Rating: ★★☆

Girvan Patent Still No. 4 Apps Grain Whisky

Girvan Patent Still No. 4 Apps Grain Whisky

A light, otherwise boring whisky might be able to escape the sharpest barbs of criticism if the price was good. However, the distillers want about $45 for this, and at that price this bottle has nowhere to hide.  Overall Rating:

Bacardi Superior Rum
