Dark and Stormy Quotes
Nidal Rimini:
"The Dark & Stormy is a strange one. I did a bit of Brand Ambassador stuff for Kirsty Loveday for Goslings, and I discovered that the D&S was created in the late 19thC after the British Navy purchased a Ginger Beer plant in Hamilton, Bermuda (I know! Why??). Anyway, one thing obviously lead to another with the local hooch and there you have it."
