[@wackity.7879]

'what age were you ten years ago?' 'ten' his reaction was adorable! :)

[@wackity.7879]

tried coconut rum before- fucking most vile drink I've ever tried. couldn't even finish it and I'm not one to throw em away.

[@snuckleberrylocs]

Izzy that's because coconut rum is a mixer, try it with a coke, Coca Cola or Pepsi. Or use it for baking.

[@wackity.7879]

I'd rather mix vodka and coke ;)

[@BigMuddyCountry]

definitely mix it, malibu and pineapple juice is the best base for mixing drinks ever. I mean that honestly, never had a bad cocktail with that base. Even with jager, though I like jager. You would think pineapple, coconut and black licorice would be a horrible mix, it tastes like pineapple mixed with orange juice that was unsweetened.

[@kendon81]

.......i was 26 10 years ago....i feel old........

[@CopperLeagueGaming]

"Why is the rum ALWAYS gone?" Oh because the Irish got a hold of it.

Mount Gay is the oldest rum distillery still in operation. Good stuff, too.

Hell yeah! its amazing

[@arinlee143]

I love that everyone's face is redder at the end. 😂

[@I8ASUPRAforLUNCH]

Arin Stopnik because Barbados Rum rocks. We invented it, after all. Mount Gay Extra Old and the R L Seale are top, top shelf.

[@MadRoski]

especially the guy with the gray hair my god he looks like a tomato

Thats true. :D

Bajan Rum is fucking glorious, this is heresy!

[@waterbeauty85]

"Smooth...like me Paddy." Well said, Aine. You and Paddy are two of my favorites.

[@mc2383]

The Barbancourt they tasted was only 3 stars (the company has a rating system). We use that for our teas/toddies and other mixed drinks. A bottle for straight sipping would have to be at least 5 stars, anything aged over ten years.

[@TaigaToraDora]

THANK YOU. I was so disappointed when I saw the bottle they gave them

[@shandya2752]

I was wondering the same thing!

[@casjasmin85]

My thoughts exactly!!!

[@vmb7120]

MC i've got an 8 star sitting on my shelf and i'm Haitian.. i was so disappointed they only had the 4 stars.. that's what my mum gave me to get well when I had a cold

[@amandae1816]

I think every Haitian cringed a little when they saw that 3 star bottle lol

[@pepsibookcat]

Definitely one of the better Facts videos of late! Good pairs. The contrast between Laura's and John's reactions was hilarious. Paddy's face getting redder glass by glass! LOL

[@eddief32]

[@HaydenX]

The standard Mount Gay (not the XO Extra Old) is actually very smooth...so smooth that it is really easy to forget that you are drinking straight hard liquor and not some kind of vanilla-ey mid-alcohol mixed drink. It also mixes very well into alcy milkshakes (like french vanilla ice cream, ceylon cinnamon, whole milk, Mount Gay rum blended together...softly mix in some candied pineapple afterward).

[@lowellholland3346]

Too bad you guys didn't try the 8 year Barbancourt. It's quite good, but the 15 year? It's like drinking a alcohol infused caramel drink. SO SMOOTH!

[@domesticV1190XxOo]

Lowell Holland that's what I was thinking.

[@garveyjean-simon4945]

Do a part 2 to this and try rum from Trinidad & Tobago, Jamaica, Puerto Rico and St. Lucia

Bacardi Superior Rum, I mean seriously, it's not a proper rum tasting if Bacardi is not included

Good thing, in this case

[@jasondaniel918]

While in the army, I met a number of people from Caribbean islands. They were unanimous in saying the most popular rum in their home island was Mount Gay. To this day, when I drink rum, I drink Mount Gay. ("I don't always drink rum. But, when I do, I drink Mount Gay.") ;-)

[@kilroys70]

I think the XO version is great

[@AONGiggz]

I'm from Barbados and that's the perfect reaction to our rums lol, but they are good so it makes you just want to finish the bottle

[@spyroninja]

Laura's cheeks at the start vs. her cheeks at the end

[@yesidoskate]

haha i noticed the same thing

Good Lord! She's like a proper sun blushed tomato...

I had to rewatch cause that ending I was like, I don't remember her cheeks being that shade before! lol

[@mrgabest]

I'm only a quarter Irish, but I'm extremely pale and my cheeks do exactly this when I'm drinking...only I'm a dude, so it's not nearly so darling.

This is brilliant. Absolutely hysterically good. True tasting by utterly delectable Irish couples. Loving the humour, the honesty, the accent. Just melts me. Loving the Irish.

Sorry, for some reason the phrase "happy belated birthday" drives me insane. That would be wishing someone well on their birthday, when their birthday was late. No, the birthday was on time, it was just the well-wishing that was late. It should be "belated happy birthday". Phew, now I feel better (until the next time...)

GJ Brown How was the craic? "Craic" (/kræk/ KRAK) or "crack" is a term for news, gossip, fun, entertainment, and enjoyable conversation, particularly prominent in Ireland. ... The word has an unusual history; the English crackwas borrowed into Irish as craic in the mid-20th century and the Irish spelling was then reborrowed into English

My friend in WW2 the Canadian Navy used to give a ration of two shots a day of Caribbean rum to sailors. It boosted morale and warmed them up especially if they just came off watch on deck.
