LONDON -- Ordering a piña colada or intimacy, desire, and eroticism?a rum and coke in your local pub will likely never taste the same as it does on a beach in Bali.But one brand is trying to recreate those holiday booze flavours using a very un-tropical tool: data.

Watson -- IBM's famous supercomputer -- then analysed thousands of rum reviews to uncover which ingredients elicit different emotions and sensations in reviewers.

Harrod explains that they took key emotions and concepts from 15 million public social media posts on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. The second data set analysed the language and tone of 5,000 rum reviews and tasting notes found online. "The data showed us that the top five emotions associated with holidays are: happiness, adventurousness, curiosity, relaxation and excitement," says Harrod. "It also showed us that these emotions matched with the following respective flavours: vanilla, all spice, curiosity, coconut and sugar or sweetness. This gave us the key flavours for our rum recipe," Harrod continued.

With the perfect blend of vanilla, sweetness, spice and tropical coconut this premium drink captures all the flavour of the holiday spirit," Harrod continued.
The limited edition bottles of rum, priced at £59 ($73.42), are available to purchase from London V-Room stores and at the V-Hols lounge at Gatwick Airport.
