What to expect

Once known as a sailor's drink, rum has matured into a refined spirit. In some Caribbean countries, rum is offered as a libation to the gods. In others, it is aged and savored on the rocks. But in the most magical places, rum is distilled by women.



The art of cocktails, rum, and women. Rum has been the drink of rebels since the Old World. Now, there's a new generation of rebels—the business women curating the taste of today's best rum companies. Rum Rebels is a story of female empowerment in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Each chapter of Rum Rebels profiles women in leadership, their rum, and the perfect cocktail pairing.



Learn how rum is made. Alongside women leaders and pioneers, this worldwide master class explores everything from palates to aging, providing first-hand stories from today's leading rum distilleries. Rum Rebels is perfect for anyone curious about the craft of rum distilling, artisan cocktails, or female leaders in history.
