Spaten Oktoberfest. I'll wrap up Oktoberfest tomorrow night with Paulaner Oktoberfest Marzen (unless I stop at the little shop, and pick up a six pack of another brew in the morning).

A recent discovery based on a recommendation from a family member. I really enjoyed this in the rocks.

Since I can’t smell or taste, I have been drinking all the stuff in the liquor locker that I usually don’t sample. (I’m an whiskey and water man)

Did you know that water and rum tastes just like the Macallan when you can’t taste?

Look, I shouldn't lose any points because I had to scrape the back of the fridge for the girl's booze.

It's not that bad....right? Right?

Yep, tastes the same. Just now getting my taste back since losing it in early Sept. Another week or two, hopefully will be back to normal.

I lived and worked in Puerto Rico for five or six years.

Ron del barrilito (the three-star) is an outstanding Puerto Rican rum. Great for sipping straight, much as you would with a good cognac. My wife likes it in a rum and tonic with a wedge of fresh lime.

Here on the U.S. mainland, it's not easy to find, and a bit pricey, so we save it for the "good stuff." When I lived in Puerto Rico it was available in the Pueblo super-market groceries, very inexpensive without the cost of transport to the mainland and without huge taxes, so we used it for all rum needs, including mixed drinks. I had a banana tree and a lime tree in my back yard, so banana daiquiris were consumed frequency.

I like the Pusser's blue label rum and in keeping with the post had some tonight. Tastes good straight and is not so expensive that I cringe to mix it.
