DRINK OF THE WEEK
24th June 2019
Wray and Nephew White Overproof Rum
Waitrose £26.50
Drinker Rating 89

So this is fun, my tasting note for this, the world's best selling high proof rum was one word, 'uncompromising'. It's a whopping 63% abv but does give a gentle hint of spice, pepper and vanilla.

It's obviously best used for mixed drinks and cocktails and as we're entering Mojito season it'll do very well with the lime and mint. The classic drink it's used in is Wray and Ting, Ting being a fizzy grapefruit crush (Sainsbury's 45p a can).

Fell the summer coming on!

Cheers!
