Presented by The Spirit Journal

Fairmont Copley Plaza: State Room B
Tickets: $25.00
Attendees will travel through time and space to the first rum-like distillates of Asia, to the botanical beginnings of sugarcane thousands of years ago, to the spread of Rum through New World exploration, finally arriving at contemporary Rum, today’s most versatile major spirit. Through the prism of blind tasting, Rum experts and co-directors of RUM FOR ALL F. Paul Pacult and Sean Ludford will make the convincing case of Rum’s unequivocal status as a world-class spirit to be enjoyed as one would Scotch whisky, Cognac, or Bourbon. This seminar is a genuine “Eureka!!” moment as attendees come away viewing Rum in a more well-rounded light, one that more accurately reflects Rum’s remarkable pedigree.
F. Paul Pacult has been called “America’s foremost spirits expert” by Forbes.com and is the multi-award-winning author of five best-selling books, the editor of F. Paul Pacult’s Spirit Journal, and a founder of both Beverage Alcohol Resource (BAR) and Ultimate Beverage Challenge (UBC). Sean Ludford is the editor of BevX, a partner in and judging co-chairman of Ultimate Beverage Challenge, and a widely respected consultant and taster.
