An old phrase says “slow as molasses in January.” Molasses is pretty darn slow at 69° F, but I don’t know when it won’t pour at all. There’s a small-batch specialty rum distillery a state or two south of here, and they have to stop work sometimes in the winter, because the molasses won’t run out of the tank.
