I have lived in Vancouver for close to 40 years; whenever I bring it back from Prague, my wife lays a claim to it for Christmas baking. I found the Austrian Inländer Rum to be quite similar, but not an easy find in Canada. Apparently, both the 'Tuzemák' and the 'Inländer' cannot use the word 'Rum' on their labels anymore, due to EU laws. This should not be a surprise, since they are both as far removed from real rum as American beer is from real beer.... There - totally of the subject, but your knowledge of such a local specialty as Tuzemák was quite a shocker for me, especially on this forum. MfG, Jan
