If you’re on Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands, listening to the waves lap into White Bay at the Soggy Dollar, sitting on a barstool with your feet in the sand, it tastes pretty damn good.

So one day, in the words of Pusser’s themselves, “Tobias somehow managed to get one of her concoctions back through the surf and over the gunwale into his boat… there we went to work trying to match her flavor as closely as possible with his own recipe.” Having performed this bit of espionage to reverse engineer her creation, he then went back to the bar and compared his to hers, and to hear him tell it, everyone preferred his, with his Pusser’s Rum. So anyway, he owns this rum brand, he’s drinking a lot of Painkillers on this beach, and he keeps asking Daphne Henderson what’s in it and she keeps refusing to tell him. He called it what the sailors had called it, “Pusser’s,” a derivation of “Purser’s” who was the person on the ship who would administer the rum to the sailors. Then, his next business idea: A run-in with a British warship inspired him, in 1979, to resurrect the particular type of rum that the Royal Navy used to ration to their sailors. ketch with a human crew of four, in addition to a chimpanzee named Tommy and a cheetah named Fifi (seriously). Now a very rich man, he took to the seas for five years, sailing around the world on a 60-ft.
