STROH. The rum of maniacs.

When I came back from Africa my cousin Steve very kindly bought me a bottle of Stroh 80 Rum.

It's made in Austria and it certainly eliminates the preconceived notion that the only thing that Austria ever produced worth wasting time on was Mozart, Wittgenstein and other assorted lunatics.

Austria's most famous son, Arnold Schwarzenegger, is known for his strength but this rum kicks sand in his face and calls him a pussy. It's called Stroh 80 because it is 80 percent proof. It packs a whack like a pissed off fisherman and kicks like a mule would if you were to insert a read hot poker in it's rectal passage.
