Interested in learning more about Martinican Rhum Agricole? Explore the differences between white rhum, gold rhum, VO, and VSOP with Melissa Pinkerton (SPIRIBAM and Rhum JM). Melissa will talk about the rhum making process, its history in Martinique, and how some of the rhums have achieved AOC status and what that means.

In addition to enjoying a virtual rhum tasting, you’ll meet Elliot Manthey, one of the owners of Meteor. He’s prepared a special cocktail mix for your rhum, and will share some of the secrets of building a cocktail, and of course, his passion for Martinican Rhum Agricole.
