What says vacation more than a Pina Colada? This creamy cocktail captures the essence of tiki-style rum drinks. The grated nutmeg adds to the complex flavors in this classic. Ten to one balances perfectly against the tropical fruit background with a funky yet not overly sweet expression.

April 12, 2021 Hemingway Daiquiri
Sean

I’ve been a bartender for 15 years and my test for a rum is always a Daiquiri test. Then once it passes that, it has to be amazing in a Hemingway Daiquiri. Man, Ten To One White is probably the best Hemingway Daiq I’ve ever had. As soon as it becomes available in Boston, this will be my bar’s go-to rum.

Old Fashioneds are my go to drink, but I had never used rum before. I was AMAZED at how good this was. Tried it because it is aged in bourbon barrels and if you like whiskey like I do, this will shock you
