58: Climbing the "Rum Pyramid" with Bristol Classic Rum's John Barrett
Manage episode 334572075 series 2785242
In this episode, we sat down with a veteran of the independent rum bottler world, John Barrett, owner of Bristol Classic Rum. The UK outfit has been sourcing, aging, and releasing rums since the '90s, giving John a rare perspective on how the category has evolved over the past few decades and where it's going next. He's been to all your favorite distilleries, he was among the first to purchase remaining Caroni stock, and he's full of stories from the better part of a lifetime in rum. You'll hear about:
The path that took John into rum sourcing and bottling nearly 30 years ago
The delicate art and science of aging rum
Why John thinks cask strength rum is overrated
His process for determining the right bottling strength
Where John thinks the next wave of great rums might come from
How Bristol got in early on sourcing Caroni—and proceeded to make one of its biggest bets ever on their rum
And much more!
