“Well rum tends to be excessively over-sugared. Not the case here. Outfitters Rum doesn’t taste like they poured sugar in a bottle of vodka. It is crisp, has a pleasant mouth feel and allows the strength of the alcohol to come through.”

Dump the ice from the martini glass.
Add 0.5 oz of Italicus Rosolio Di Bergamotto to the martini glass and rinse the glass by swirling the liquid around the glass and up-to the rim.
