[BPAL] Kill-Devil
My Yule order arrived today. As usual, they included a metric assload of new frimps to try. Here's the first.
BPAL SAYS: Rum punch is not improperly called Kill-Devil; for thousands lose their lives by its means. When newcomers use it to the least excess, they expose themselves to imminent peril, for it heats the blood and brings on fevers, which in a very few hours send them to their graves.
Sugar cane, molasses, oak wood, and honey.
IN THE BOTTLE: Butterscotch candy.
WET ON SKIN: Warm, rich honeyed rum with a hint of molasses. Mmmm, it makes me feel downright edible.
DRYDOWN: The oak note is coming out now.
DRY: It's weirdly clean and cool, which is not what you'd expect given the other notes. There's something almost ... minty in there, sort of like eucalyptus.
This fades fairly quick on me, alas. Still, I really like it.
