73: Tales from an Epic Rum Journey Around the World w/ Richard Nicholson
Manage episode 353824882 series 2785242
28 Distillery Visits. 11 Countries. 13 Months.
In this episode, we sit down with Richard Nicholson, founder of the New Zealand Rum Society and your fellow Rumcast listener, to unpack what can only be described as a rum journey of epic proportions. Richard spent 13 months on the road taking 28 distillery visits, attending numerous rum festivals, and visiting three of his own personal rum "Holy Grail" destinations, from Barbados to Martinique to Guadeloupe to Madeira to Scotland and beyond.
In addition to pulling as many rum travel tips out of Richard as we could, we also went deep into his on-the-ground exploration of rhum agricole and all of the delightful surprises it has to offer right now, his trip into the cellars of the Main Rum Company, and much more, including:
How he went about planning this rum odyssey in the first place
His #1 "run, don't walk" destination for other rum enthusiasts based on his journey
The magic of Marie-Galante rums
Cane juice rums more people should be talking about
Adventures at rum festivals across Europe
The ins and outs of Madeira rum
And more
