Since then I have had the pleasure of meeting Dan and been exposed to many of the dark secrets of his art.

I suppose I should correct the review, now that my facts are plainly not facts.

My dear Sue Sea and I had the opportunity to try the Cherrywood, as well as five others from Daniel at Robert's recent Guatamalan tasting in Miami. <br /><br />Your review stated "The Cherrywood rum has, as one would expect, a rich, woody flavor to it - owed to the aging process in charred oak casks".<br /><br /><br />Now please, please correct me if I'm wrong (we did have 16 rums that night, lol) but I'm almost certain that Daniel explained that his rum is NOT aged in barrels but in stainless casks. The wood, eg. Lemonwood, Cherrywood, Cane, Hickory, etc. is then inserted into the stainless containers along with the rum.<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Capn Jimbo<br /><br />

Matt, thanks for the review. My dear Sue Sea and I had the opportunity to try the Cherrywood, as well as five others from Daniel at Robert’s recent Guatamalan tasting in Miami.

Your review stated “The Cherrywood rum has, as one would expect, a rich, woody flavor to it – owed to the aging process in charred oak casks”.

Now please, please correct me if I’m wrong (we did have 16 rums that night, lol) but I’m almost certain that Daniel explained that his rum is NOT aged in barrels but in stainless casks. The wood, eg. Lemonwood, Cherrywood, Cane, Hickory, etc. is then inserted into the stainless containers along with the rum.

Best regards,
Capn Jimbo
