here's another one: i'm trying to find out about the process of LONDON DOCK BONDING. From what i've read, myer's had a pre-war (II) rum aged 30 years that would be aged in london warehouses. the claim is that the dampness of the docks would permeate the rum. i can't see how this is possible in bottled rums, unless they were just bonding the casks and bottling it in london after 30 years. i don't know. if anyone has ANY info about this subject, please post. also, anything about the bonding process would be helpful, cheers and kind regards, giacomo

yes, if we could only convince the federales of that

hi, i'm currently doing research for a novel and need some input about spirits competition in the early 60's, shortly after the cuba embargo went into effect. if anyone has any information or history about this era or where i can find it, please post. i am trying to find out as much as i can about rum production before and after the revolution and the availability of cuban rum after the embargo, through smuggling. also, if anyone can direct me to a history of spirits competition, that would be of tremendous help. thanks, giacomo j_castronovo@yahoo.com
