We've been predicting a comeback of tiki drinks for about three years now, but maybe it will finally happen in 2010. The New York Times has two rum stories today.
The first is a huge and terrific write-up of Martin Cate's Smuggler's Cove that opens next week in San Francisco, and Audrey Saunders' Tar Pit in Los Angeles opening later this month. I did not know that Saunders' spot was going to be rum and tiki themed- this is most excellent news.
The second is a tasting of aged rums with some interesting conclusions.
