I’m just sitting here, drinking some really cheap rum, and wondering why the more expensive version doesn’t burn quite so much. I think that I could probably make some educated guesses (along the lines of: more expensive = better) but i’m wondering if anyone can actually put into words why that is. Thanks in advance
