Thread: Bay rum is amazing!

Bay rum is a fine splash. Personally, I'm waiting for the Bay bourbon and Bay scotch so I can rotate splashes as I rotate razors, soaps, and creams.

"Today in this corner we have a fine lather from Taylor of Old Bond Street, shaved off to the smoothness of an infant's patoot by a Wade and Butcher hollow ground, and finished with a splash from the finest single malt Bay scotch." Keeping it on the Isles, as it were.

Tomorrow we may do a Continental shave finished with some Bay cognac or maybe a delicate Bay champagne. Or Bay jagermeister; no that's for next week.

good shaving, good splashing

The Bay Rum I made last week you could drink although I won't vouch for it's scent or it's taste. I just know it won't kill you.

The small amount of essential oils that remain on your skin evaporate too quickly to last all day altho some last longer than others
Nothing wrong with a repeat application.

Or in South Carolina, where I lived earlier this year, bay moonshine would be an alternative. Imagine an aftershave with 95% vol alcohol. That would BURN.

Anyone up for the challenge? Making and using the highest proof AS?

At 95%, alcohol would sure dehydrate your skin. The purpose of the alcohol in not to make it burn either. I know that you are joking though.

Al raz.

I only use bay rum!!!!!

Try wetting your hands in the bathroom and lightly patting your face damp....when i wear Dominica I can smell the scent again after doing this.

Greetings,

I am the opposite. i absolutely love it. it's my favorite but i like that it only lasts like 10 minutes. For me that is part of the mystique. If you smell like it all day it kind of loses that wonderful feeling. I think i am going to order some of the ones mentioned here. So far i have tried 2 kinds d.r. harris and taylor of old. I guess i'm a little opposite too because the stinging does not appeal to me. I like the smell but the taylor i really dig because it is dark, thick, does not really burn too much and leaves some nice oils in your skin for a little bit. my skin feels nourished and smooth afterwards,

regards,
m.a.d.

try the Ogallala Bay rum. Seems to last all day for me!

I am going to add a poll to see which ones people use, could you guys please come with ideas for which bay rums should be in the poll
