We were out on Saturday, and Sunday was catching up on recipes further ahead in the queue (bought a new cocktail book at the Boston Shaker's new store 15 minutes before the rum purchase). I did get to taste it at Haus Alpenz's table at Tales and had a Daiquiri-with-bitters made with it -- it's intense. But I have yet to experiment on my own. And a punch at Drink yesterday that had it in there, but not a drink with my bottle. Haven’t opened it yet.
