Happy Birthday Hubbard
Today is Hubbard’s birthday so I picked up a gift for him at my local wine and spirits store. I say you can never go wrong buying someone a bottle of booze for most any occasion. This one seemed fitting.
Railean Rum
Railean Rum - Handmand Texas Rum
About the Rum
Railean Rum is a brand made by the family owned and operated Eagle Point Run Distillery located on the shores of Galveston Bay in San Leon, Texas. That’s right, a rum made right here in Texas. The monk parakeet is their official mascot. About the bottle I picked out:
RAILEAN Rum is 100% Handmade in Texas. We begin by fermenting pure Grade-A, unsulfured, cane molasses with yeast manufactured specifically for small batch rum production. The Master Distiller then utilizes our state-of-the-art Bavarian Holstein copper pot still to perform multiple distillations in order to craft an ultra-pure cane spirit. The final product aged, gently filtered and polished to produce a smooth, dry (not sweet), yet flavorful rum
I have been reading about them in various local and state magazines and advertisements for some time now, and knowing Hubbard’s affection for all things Texas, I thought it would make a perfect birthday gift.
It’s a little cool this time of year for drinking Mojitos, but rest assured as soon as it warms up we’ll be publishing our favorite recipe.

and how fitting with the monk parakeet as their mascot.
I was debating between a Texas rum and a Texas vodka, but the minute I saw the monk parakeet on the bottle my decision was made for me.
That’s perfect! What fun!!
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
Happy Birthday!
