  1. rum nose

    Rum nose, also known as alcoholic nose or drinker's nose, is a colloquially used term to refer to a swollen, reddened nose often seen in long-term, heavy alcohol consumers, particularly among those who consume a lot of rum or other types of alcohol. The condition can cause the blood vessels in the face and nose to enlarge and become more visible, causing a flushed and bulbous appearance. This phenomenon is actually a form of a skin disorder called rosacea and is not directly caused by alcohol but aggravated by it. People with this condition may be incorrectly assumed to be heavy drinkers.
