The Rum Revolution starts now
Earlier this month, during the fourth edition of Ian Burrell’s UK RumFest, the very first Golden Rum Barrels Awards was launched.
This unique competition is a small revolution: until now, there has been no internationally recognized award for those who work on a daily basis to produce rums of the highest possible quality.
A jury formed by a group of first class international rum aficionados tested each of the nominees' beverages which were selected to run for gold. Our dear friend Jeff “Beachbum” Berry was one of the judges. We saw him in action during the Havana Club Grand Prix, and it must be said that he truly is one serious examiner! Dispatched amongst more than twenty categories including “Best White Rum”, “Best Solera Rum” and “Best Rum Packaging”, the names of the winning bottles were revealed to the international community on October 16th. You will find the full list here: http://rumconnection.com/uncategorized/winner-3/
