Review:
A light rum sour sipped through a float of pungent pot still rum.
History:
Adapted from a recipe created in 1971 by Wilfred Sands while bartending at the Lyford Cay Club in New Providence, Bahamas. Wilfred apparently made the drink at the request of a member who sought a short rum cocktail that was not overly sweet.
