Bay Rum Bay Rum Bay Rum

Marko & primotenore  maybe I ought to take a shot at making a Lime Bay Rum along with the other one I have planned for spring.  I ordered a vintage Rum Barrel to make my next batches.

This is music to my ears   all I can say is YES!

AoS Oud~~Semogue 2012 SE Mistura~~Gustave Lalune Mon Fier Destrier~~St Johns Bay Rum/W. Indian Lime
I experimented with a combination of stanks.
I picked up this pair on Ebay and they had both been opened. I had a 1oz bottle of West Indian Lime Cologne
and I dumped it into the bottle of AS. That really upped the ante vis-à-vis scent-strength.
Back in the day, I had a bottle of Dominica Bay Rum w/Lime. stupidly, I sold it.
That item has now become unobtanium.
One pipette of the Bay Rum and one of the Lime and presto-chango, Bay Rum w/Lime.
And, it should be noted, stronger than I remember the Dominica being.

St Johns bay rum definitely has more staying power than Dominica. I have a large bottle of St James Bay Rum and a sample vial of the Lime. I’ll have to try this mix.

Just finished these today and they will be available soon at my vendors and on the ETHOS website. First Tallow Shave Sticks I’ve made. 

Thought I’d post it in here too. 

Who here has tried Thor's Hammer Bay Rum and/or Bay Rum w/Lime?
Can I get some feedback?
Thanks.

I have both (what a surprise). They’re nice and spicy but suffer from the common lack of longevity. More of an alcohol splash rather than a heavy toner. No clove that I can detect but then I like clove. You can get it in smaller bottles with a useful flow restrictor. The bigger bottles have very snug rubber stoppers. Hard to remove but there’s no risk of leakage.

Thanks for the feedback, Marko. Seems like a redundant purchase...
Which Bay Rum do you consider to have the best longevity?

Oh, wth, just bought the 5oz bottle of Thor's Hammer Bay Rum w/Lime. Review to follow...

As the Professional Marko said about longevity which is common but I do enjoy them Both as they were a gift from a friend.

AoS Oud~~Simpson M7~~Gem Clog-Pruf/Gem~~Caribbean Bay Rum
This new acquisition is very similar to Dominica. Do I wish the scent lasted longer? Sure, but I really am unaware of a Bay Rum with prolonged longevity.
