I keep coming back to this drink, it is one of my favorites. Used Sourwood honey from Asheville Bee Charmer, one of the businesses buy from after the floods there. Need to keep the economy going. Sourwood gives it a different spin.

A cacophony of flavors. Between the rums, fruit juices, Falernum and allspice dram, it is quite complex. Maybe too many flavors fighting to stand out.

Maybe this is because I broke out the big guns (Clement XO), but this is absolutely phenomenal. I don't want to say best I've ever had but it's up there for one of the best drinks I've had. Smooth and complex, zero muddiness like orange juice cocktails have a habit of, no flavour is overwhelmed.

I cant be bothered with the use of honey syrup since i had non around, used Raw Blue Agave, amazingly unique showcase of Agricole profile. id get some honey for next time.

Great use for the last of my Clement VSOP Rhum Vieux Agricole, mixed with Kaniche XO. Served in tiki mugs. A fitting birthday tribute to Donn The Beachcomber.

You get the taste of the fruit juice right away, which then transitions to the honey, and after you swallow the allspice hits you. An interesting example of a drink that changes flavor over time. I've played around by replacing the honey with orgeat and it's great.

Outstanding. Used Barbancourt 8 year for the Ruhm Agricole funk and a Barbados 8 year old. Loved all the flavours together and the lingering hint of Caribbean spices. Served in a tiki mug. Having eaten and had cocktails at Don the Beachcomber Restaurants here in California. Fond memories with this cocktail.

A Tiki drink with less funk, leading the spices to dominate... Refreshing and relatively light for a Tiki cocktail for me, but good.
