Bruno is the latest Sacha Baron Cohen film, and like its older cousin Borat, it really showcases a fish out of water situation. Where the film seems to be more story-oriented than Borat, many of the individuals that I knew that went to see the movie wanted to view exactly what Bruno Gehard got eirself into.

Coconut is one of the more familiar flavors that rum has been placed with in my experience, and this is not for nothin’; the taste of the coconut meshes well with the rum, and the resulting spirit exudes a more tropical flavor than say a Cherry rum. The Brinley Gold version of coconut rum is one of the best I have had. First off, the rum with which the coconut…
