Whether you are drinker of bourbon, scotch, or tequila – Bevvy’s Matt Pietrek has gathered a guide for those looking to expand into the rum category. Pietrek sifts through the world of premium rum, providing insight on the rum options that will expand your liquor cabinet beyond the industry’s basics.
