We are so excited to welcome to the podcast Jay Cocorullo, a Founder and President of the Florida Rum Society, a community group with over 2,500 members worldwide (open to everyone, not just Florida residents) committed to the education and experience of rum and bringing high quality rums to the state of Florida. This episode is a can't miss, whether you are a rum lover, rum curious or you think you (heaven forbid) hate rum! Jay's passion is infectious, he taught us SO much - including that rum is so much more than the general public thinks it is - and we simply had a great time. After listening, we challenge you, if you are not a rum lover - and especially if you are rum curious - to go explore this amazing category of spirits that has so much to offer! As always, email us with any comments/questions/suggestions at thespiritedenthusiast@gmail.com.
