The Caribbean may be the best rum destination in the world but bringing the best of the rum world under one roof is the UK RumFest. From casual drinkers to aficionados, there’s something for everybody in this two-day festival to be held in London this October.
Creating the perfect environment with great live bands and entertainment avenues, the UK RumFest celebrates the culture associated with drinking rum. Last heard, 400 rums are said to be lined up to sip, savour and buy.
Some of UK’s best mixologists will create some interesting rum-based cocktails. Industry experts and master blenders will also be conducting the Rum University to give a brief understanding of brewing and appreciating rum.
Those interested can also sign up for the Rum Cocktail Academy, to be hosted by the world’s top rum bars and bartenders. The UK RumFest is also hosting rum and chocolate master-classes.
