Among them: Ben Franklin's favorite term for intoxication, "Been to Barbados," in honor of rum's probable birthplace. The country that consumes the most rum per capita. The original Trader Vic & Don the Beachcomber (yes, they were real people), who created the 'tiki bar' craze. Ernest Hemingway, who had a rum cocktail created just for him. Stephen Remsberg, a New Orleans attorney who owns what may be the world's largest private rum collection. Complete recipes for rum cocktails & a handy guide to the best available rum brands, it's the perfect gift for your foodie friends - or for yourself, especially if you're thirsty.
