It is Cane Spirit Rothschild. Comes from St Kitts. Basically, it was named after Rothschild who had a big presence on the Island and is the local rum. Had a bottle when I went to St Kitts in the 80's, a good white rum.
That's also where I found Ting and the 2 go together very nicely.

Hubby was't sure, paused, waiter asked again. Hubby said very thirsty. Waiter who had an island accent asked' "want someting?" Hubby said yes but not sure. Waiter: Have some ting? I think hubby got annoyed. Then waiter came back with a tiny bottle TING. Ah, some Ting! We rolled with laughter. We've enjoyed it with rum until hubby went on a statin drug and cannot have grapefruit products.

Well, I'm on the same type of drug and had the same concerns. My Dr said pill in the morning and Ting and rum in the afternoon, or vice versa. The caveat was that I'd only be doing this 1 or 2 weeks at a time. After many years, my C levels are just fine.

Good question.
Usually my dear wife and I split a can or bottle and sometimes go for double that, but that's all for the evening and sunset watch.
