  • My Gay Rum Trudianne B

    Enjoyed listening to a female distiller of rum from such a well renowned rum labeland hear of her success in the industry. Her messages of the balance between custodianship, maintaining traditions, and innovations were interesting to listen to.

    Excellent Pod cast. It’s obvious how passionate Ian & Paul are. They seem to have put their heart & soul into this project and I really wanna try this bourbon. I did try whisky many years ago but found it harsh, so I turned into a vodka girl. Being in the UK, I’m guessing the postage will be expensive, but I’m gonna have a look, purely due to this podcast, so watch this space.
