Thread: Homebrew Bayrum Recipes

I went to the store and got some dried pimenta racemosa leaves, 10$ for 5 g.(not bad I think). Now just need to do the recipe, finally...

i have two batches one i used a lot of rhum, cin, black pepper and star anis plus added oils of clove basil sweet orange and bay . the next is only rhum and vevitar , bay and sandelwood I personaly like the first but i think my mussus like the seconed more, hard to tell since she doesnt give me her opinion

as far as the essential oils go, i use a lot because i am looking for an all day scent not a fast fade

by the way can anyone try to explain how exactly classic bay rhum should smell. I am making and using this stuff but have never even smelled the original so no real idea if i am on the right track.

Hi guys, great thread!

I have a question. Is it only the glycerin that causes the need for shaking the bottle up before use, or do the oils not mix into the alcohol?

Inquiring minds want to know! I live withing walking distance of a gigantic caribbean neighborhood, so I'm sure I can find some bay leaves, and I have a few ideas for other things to add.
