That must be the one I make, then. I don't have Sippin' Safari, but the Kaiser Penguin has the recipe at his blog, which is where I found it. Since it's out in the public "open", I imagine the bum knows it's there, so I'll go ahead and post the link.

It is my very, very favoritist rum drink on the planet Earth.

Did the label on Lemon Hart 151 use to be white? I was in a ratty liquor store when I was happy to find a bottle of Coconut Cruzan (now hard to find since Bevmo stopped carrying it) and up on the top shelf I spied an ancient bottle of Lemon Hart 151. But the label was white. I have already hoarded two bottles and was afraid this bottle had spent so much time in the sun it had faded. I didn't buy it but was just curious about the old bottle.

Lemon Hart 80 showed up at the drinkupny.com site a week or so ago, so I ordered some, and received it. I was on the site just now and they list the 151 as well.
If you are concerned, I would go for it.

Oops, too late... unless they do get a next shipment. Same thing with the 80º, BTW.

Well, crap! So soon! I guess that was to be expected, but I hope I got the word out in time so that most, if not all of that, went to Tiki Tipplers!

Here is drinkupNY's response to my query re Lemon Hart being temporarily out of stock.
"The producer of the Lemon Hart Rum is in the process of changing their distributor in the United States. Until that legal process is complete, they will not be able to sell this product in the US. "
Interestingly, it appears that they are taking orders, i.e. back orders. They must have some confidence that they will be getting sock within a reasonable amount of time?

Both. Sometimes they have it on the shelf.

I went to Beverage Warehouse yesterday looking for some and it's all gone. I called everywhere I could in SoCal and couldn't find anything. Fortunately, I squirreled away a bottle of the 151 when I heard that it was going to be discontinued last year but I'm down to about a half bottle on the regular 80 proof. The El Dorado 12 year is the best approximation? This would be a great way for a boutique rum producer -- I'm looking at you, Ballast Point -- to make a mark.
