3/5. Personally would not use a Jamaican rum, or would split Jamaican with a no hogo rum. To me, Jamaican rum sours all end up tasting mostly of citrus and the rum - tasty, but after getting out all these other ingredients, a bit disappointing.

Beachbum Berry created the Hart of Darkness as a safer, delicious way of consuming his favorite overproof dark rum; I adapted his recipe to my favorite overproof white rum.

  • Since recently making fresh pineapple syrup, I was looking for a good recipe. Wray of Light hits the mark! I changed the recipe back to Smith & Cross dark Jamaican overproof rum. I'm impressed with the balance of this 4 ingredient cocktail.
