To The Rum!

Constantine and Bryan aren't dead! Sorry for the hiatus, but we're back for 2026 after a brief sabbatical. TO THE RUM!

Join Bryan and Constantine as they connect with the one and only, Kate Perry from Velier. She recounts her journey from starting at Rumba to tracking down Luca Gargano at Tales of the Cocktail, to walking the streets of New York City with bottles of Caroni, and to traveling to Haiti, and everything else in between.

Tune in as Matt Pietrek returns to the podcast to chat with Bryan and Constantine on the history of Royal Navy Rum. We'll learn how it evolved over the years, how they blended it and have a special toast just like the days of old! The book can be found here: https://www.wonkpress.com/products/the-rum-never-sets

Tune in as Bryan and Constantine sit down with the team from American Cane.Many forget that rum, not whiskey, was the Spirit of the American Revolution and an essential ingredient in the country’s early independence. But Darin Vest, Chaz Vest, and Maggie Campbell haven’t forgotten.They’re charting a bold future for American rum, and it’s one you’ll want to keep an eye on.

Tune into to hear Bryan and Constantine talk the large Rum Event they are putting together for 2025. We’re talking Rum Curious Summit and Fiji Rum & Tiki Fest. We say the several times throughout the episode, but you have to be some sort of crazy to put on large scale events.
