Just made this with a bottle of Dillon Rhum Blanc Agricole (55% vol) bought from Marseille Airport duty free. Very nice indeed. My first cocktail made with this type of rum. Enjoying the banana profile to it and the alcohol really draws out the length.
Since this called Montego Bay, decided to try with Smith and Cross Traditional Jamaican at 114 proof. Very much a different cocktail. The Jamaican funk come through loud and strong. Much more intense flavour than the original.
This is good not great. Knowing I, the sugar might need to be reduced to 5ml or a sweet Curacao replaces the triple sec. Used my new bottle of Rhum J.M. 100 proof. With each recipe I make using it, I'm feeling it's too robust(?)... but it's great in a Ti Punch, of course... What's your take? (4 May 2023, 10:34a)
Being a lover of rhum Agricole and Rhum Clement Canne Bleu I absolutely loved this.
You must like the funk of rhum Agricole, but it was outstanding. Had it after dinner with organic fresh local strawberries and some extra sharp cheddar cheese from New Zealand. Definitely on my favourites.
Words cannot say how much I love this. Again, it is not for everyone, but if you love rhum, it is wonderful.
