Some thoughts I've mulled over for a while, intended for writers with a more "mainstream" audience than my rum-focused writer friends.

Your periodic reminder that “Navy strength” is not 57% ABV. The British navy decreed it in 1866. True navy issuing strength is 54.5.% ABV, i.e. 4.5 % percent (“degrees”) less than “proof”. Navy strength rum is, in fact, under-proof. Too many brands get this wrong. – at New Orleans, LA
