Drink Till You Feel Like You’ve Time-Traveled
Davis took us through the corners that felt like side streets. “Because we knew this one was going to be a rum distillery, we were going to build it off the boat rides and then we started with the whole thing as a submarine world and being an underwater adventure. So how about we build the docks around the submarine? And so I tied it into a whole lot of English literature—Verne is maybe my one French exception. And so the booze and the settings are all meant to kind of intertwine,” he said. “What does The Portrait of Dorian Gray booze look like? How do you blend the contexts and the different flavor profiles that would go with those, in order to get something that you would then drink? And you imagine where Oscar Wilde would want to hang out.”
