Tiki Tastings: Skipper Rum
When a rum puts “The Best In This Rum World” on their label (and on their cap), they are raising your expectations for their spirit even before you’ve cracked open the bottle. Skipper Rum does exactly this. It’s a dark demerara rum from Guyana, made with a recipe that has been in continuous production – and using the same label art! – since 1930. The rum is a blend if seven different dark rums that are all aged for at least three years. The label calls it a navy strength rum (as did the man at the liquor store who pulled this gem out for us), but it is bottled at 45% ABV, which puts it at a lower alcohol content than many of our other navy strength rums.
You can smell molasses, dark brown sugar and a bit of both caramel and oak on the nose of this rum. The dominant flavor in the rum itself is molasses, and it is a rich, dark molasses that has just the right balance of bitterness and sweetness to it. It almost reminds us of gingerbread, but with less aggressive spicing. It is very smooth and has a slow finish that fills your nose with brown sugar and spice. It’s actually delicious on its own and we don’t always sip darker rums. It also brings some wonderful complexity to cocktails that use dark rum. We really like this rum, but we’re hesitant to say that it is the best in “this rum world” we’ll stick with very, very good for now – said as we mix ourselves up another Dark n’ Stormy with Skipper in it.
Rum Rating: 4/5

0/5 – Is this even rum?

2/5 – Not very good, but could be covered up with mixers.
3/5 – Good, versatile rum.
4/5 – Great rum, with complex flavors that is outstanding on its own or in cocktails.
5/5 – Amazing rum. Don’t even think about covering it up with mixers.
Bellevue previously attempted in 1990 to annex the Eastgate area, which represents 4,967 of the new residents, with a vote passing easily. But when it became apparent that residents would be forced to pay off some of the city’s bond debt, the people voted it down and Bellevue declined to continue with the annexation process. This annexation effort is contingent on residents accepting an equal share of debt. Stafford said he has received no concern from residents on this issue.The truly amazing aspect of all of this is that Coach Marsden is still going strong and is only going to continue to push his win total even higher. Rather than a eulogy, this is merely a mile marker on a journey that has yet to be completed. The undefeated Red Rocks are currently ranked No. 4 in the nation. Their next meet will be at home this Friday vs. Arizona. These ladies are absolutely amazing athletes and a pure joy to watch.
