What's the Best Book?
I've been exploring rums via my taste buds for several months and need to learn more. I visited Amazon and purchased Rum, The Manual by Dave Broom. It has some good info but he's based in London, where I gather the available rums are quite different (I'm on the West Coast U.S.), and it was written six years ago. Many rums are rated based on their mixability with "clementine juice"--After looking that up I learned that a clementine is something resembling a European tangerine, and it's nowhere for sale in the U.S. What's the best reference book on rums available here, in 2022?
Try Smuggler's Cove book. It's about rum and tiki, the author is American bar owner, he mentions shops and ingredients that sound foreign to me so I think it should be more native to you. It's also more recent. I strongly recommend it.
Thanks Kudzey, I just ordered the Smuggler's Cove book on Amazon. I've invested a good deal in my rum selection over the past two months and made a couple of pricy purchases I regret so I hope to improve my knowledge through reading. In label statements and ratings there's rarely any mention of sugar content...has somebody somewhere has put together a list of that? Some rums I've tried are so sweet they're like saccharine syrup, I hope to avoid those in the future and it seems like a pretty critical feature of rum, it's surprising that it's rarely mentioned in reviews. I believe thefatrumpirate owns a glucose meter, now I always check his reviews before buying.
RumX database also includes the sugar content of the rums. To avoid disappointments, try to explore the rum world with samples instead of full bottles. I still have some half-full bottles of sweet shit I bought (or was gifted) at some point in the past. Especially the sweet stuff can even spoil a coke-overloaded Cuba libre.
