For the second instalment of The Rum Shack’s cocktails we’ve
kept it short. Too much of a good thing and all that.
This time around we’re offering up 6 original rum cocktails using
different styles from the far corners of the Caribbean (as well as
Scotland’s first and only rum) alongside a couple of other tipples
for those of you who aren’t enticed by our kill-devil options.
As ever, we also have 4 simple serves available for you to work
your way through along with our cocktail of the month and our
large selection of beers, wine and all ting fine.
We hope we have managed to provide something for all of you
but please do not hesitate to ask at the bar for recommendations,
alternatives or clarification on anything you are not sure of.
Welcome, and enjoy!
Every vessel that transits the Panama canal must pay a toll based on it’s size
and cargo volume. Tolls for the largest ships can run up to about $450,000
however the smallest toll ever paid was 36 cents, plunked down in 1928 by
American adventurer Richard Halliburton, who swam the 77 kilometre long
canal. Today, some $1.8 billion in tolls are collected annually.
Richie boy, this one’s for you ya crazy cat!

Venezuela is home to the Capybara, the biggest rodent in the world.
They can weigh up to 80kg and look like the love-child of a hippo and a
guinea pig (ouch). In addition to having webbed fingers and toes, they
can also hold their breath for several minutes underwater if they are
hiding from predators.
Rodents are usually pretty quiet creatures but these guys have been heard
clicking, squeaking, grunting, purring and even barking!

Definitely not the most famous Bob to hail from the small Caribbean island
of Jamaica, Keith ‘Bob Andy’ Anderson has certainly made his mark on
Jamaican music and contributed to it’s worldwide acclaim.
Emerging as a solo artist in 1966, he subsequently founded the legendary
vocal group The Paragons and was one of Studio One’s leading lights both
writing for himself and contributing to others’ work. Bob gained international
recognition in 1970 with his cover of Nina Simone’s ‘Young, Gifted and
Black’ alongside Marcia Griffiths who would later go on to be one of Bob
Marley’s I-Threes.
Bob performed at anti-apartheid concerts in the late ‘80s, campaigned for
higher standards within Jamaican music, toured the world a few times over
and inspired a new generation of reggae artists.
In 2006 Bob received Jamaica’s Order of Distinction for his contributions to
the development of reggae music.
Hats off to you auld yin.
Eddie Grant was born in Plaisance, Guyana, in 1948. Despite being
renowned for asking Joanna to give him hope during the dark years of
Apartheid, not wanting to dance or rocking down to Electric Avenue, we
particularly like the fact that his middle name is Montague!

Ruben Dario (Felix Ruben Garcia Sarmiento) was an influential Nicaraguan
poet, journalist and diplomat. Dario modernised and breathed new life into
poetry in Spanish on both sides of the Atlantic through his experiments
with rhythm, metre and imagery. Dario developed a highly original poetic
style that founded a tradition and began a new movement in Nicaraguan
literature called Modernismo.
He literally wrote himself into the history books!

James Clerk Maxwell was a Scottish scientist in the field of mathematical
physics. He formulated the classical formulation of electromagnetic
radiation which brought electricity, magnetism and light together as
manifestations of the same phenomenon for the first time. His work
in this field led to the prediction of the existence of radio waves.
Maxwell also contributed greatly to the field of optics and colour vision,
creating the foundation for colour photography.
His contribution to physics are considered by many to be of the same
magnitude as both Sir Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein and Einstein
himself described his work as ‘the most profound and the most fruitful
that physics has seen since the time of Newton.’
