2016 Spiced Rum Taste-off: George Street Spiced Rum (#1)
Posted by Arctic Wolf on August 25, 2016
The capital of Newfoundland and Labrador is a city called St. John’s, and there they have a place where the rum consumption reaches its apex. That place is George Street! A street full of music and revelry, lined from top to bottom with Pubs and Restaurants, where almost everyone’s drink of choice seems to be rum! And it is for that place that the Newfoundland and Labrador Liquor Commission (NLC) have named their spiced rum, George Street Spiced Rum.
This isn’t an ordinary spiced rum. For starters, the rum itself is from Guyana, the home of the world-famous Demerara Rum. Some of the rum in the blend is two years old, some of the rum in the blend is 5 years old, and some of the rum in the blend is 7 years old. And this aged Guyanese Rum has been painstakingly crafted into a spiced rum using extractions and distillations of real spices.
Here is a link to the review of the best spiced rum I have on my personal rum shelf:

What volume of Rum constitutes a “Dram” to you?? Less than a “Shot” or 1 oz.? A “shot & a half”? Do you normally consider a double shot drink a good or normal sipping amount? I’m sure it’s all personal choice & I have my typical amount but what about The Arctic Wolf??

A dram is however much I happen to pour into the my glass, usually between 1/2 and 3/4 of an ounce. (Although on some days with a particularly good whisky or rum it might stretch up to a full ounce.
