Although Martinique today makes nearly all of its rhum today from sugar cane juice (rhum “agricole”), it once made a substantial amount of molasses-based rhum–until a volcano explosion in 1902 wiped out many of the larger molasses-based distilleries.

Steve Crane, the man behind the The Luau and the Kon Tiki chain of restaurants (the book refers to him as Tiki’s “Third Man,” behind Donn Beach and Trader Vic) was a Hollywood actor and was married to the famous actress Lana Turner.The first palette naturally starts with Donn Beach, covering the birth of Tiki in the immediate post-Prohibition era. Under sours, you’ll find lime, grapefruit and orange juices. In the tropical fruits section are pineapple and passionfruit. If you limited yourself to the ingredients from the first palette, you could probably approximate a Donn Beach recipe from the early days of Tiki. Noticeably absent from this palette are lemon and orgeat, staples of many later recipes. I absolutely agree that the independent bottlers are a fantastic resource. My only wish is that even more of the European bottlers like Bristol were available here.

A warm welcome awaits you at Smugglers Cove, whether your visiting the local seaside, stopping at our Marstons Inn or looking for a delicious meal to enjoy with all your friends and family.

When juicing limes and lemons by hand, go easy on them. If you squeeze too hard to get the last few drops out, you’ll get a lot more bitterness from the skin oil and pith, which tastes bad in a drink. Not happy we spoke to the waitress and the manager, we were told the menu states a main and starter or a main and pudding.

The amount of Angostura bitters in a “dash” is varies widely between the “normal” 4 oz. bottle and the large 16 oz. bottle used at Smuggler’s Cove. (Editorial aside: Really, why would you buy only a 4 oz. bottle? But point taken.) The key takeaway from all this is that a rum category from the book is not the same thing as flavor profile. This might seem academic, however the book uses the categories (rather than specific rum recommendations) in every recipe. The first recipe I made after receiving the book was the Golden Gun: Love coming here. Always served by a friendly face but shout out to Callum for being a top bloke with great bants! The Smuggler’s Cove book plunges into its classification system with all the necessary disclaimers in place. It substantially expands upon the Gargano system above, primarily by adding an age dimension as well as separating molasses/evaporated cane rums from fresh cane rums, e.g. Agricole-style. The categories are best summarized like this:Whether your bringing the whole family or enjoying a night off from the kids, we have plenty of options for everyone.How about trying one of our show stopping burgers such as the Ultimate Spicy Beef Burger? Or, If you fancy a pub classic, try our hand-battered fish and chips. Nothing beats a classic British Carvery. Ours is served fresh and features succulent slow-cooked meats, home-made Yorkies & veg that changes to suit the season! Tiki mugs made before 1970 may not be food safe because of potentially high levels of lead. (Though to be fair to your mug collection, lots of vintage dishware made prior to U.S. lead laws carries the same warning.) Due to public health measures introduced by the UK government, some of the on-park facilities may not be open. Details It would be beneficial if this additional nudge (in parenthesis) was used more widely throughout the recipes.
