Pimento Dram from The Bitter Truth is made from Jamaican rum, sugarcane, and selected pimento (allspice) berries — also called Jamaica pepper — a highly aromatic liqueur built for cocktails. English explorers coined the term "allspice" because the berry seemed to embody the flavors of cinnamon, pepper, nutmeg, and clove all at once; on the Caribbean island of Jamaica, this distinctive liqueur has been produced for generations. The color of a treasure chest and the smell of home — Jamaica — it is the classic tiki-bar ingredient the classics were built on.
Tasting Notes: Sweet, spicy, and very intense. Clove initially presents itself in the foreground, fading into the pure flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, and pepper which linger on the tongue — with a finish of hot smoked maple syrup and dry cardamom.
How to Use: The essential allspice dram of classic tiki — the Lion's Tail, the Bermuda Rum Punch — or a spiced depth in any rum cocktail.
