Rum is distilled, and AFAIK all distilled liquors have 0 carbs. That doesn't mean they are calorie-free of course. And I have noticed a difference in the way spirits affect me. I find vodka to be the easiest on my body, followed by rum of all kinds. Single malt Scotch is actually fairly easy on me, but Bourbon--even fine Bourbon--often gives me a hella hangover even if I haven't had much.


But the absolute worst is Tequila. I start shaking even before I've finished my first drink.
