Here are a few comments from people that attended the Denver Seminar:

Over a period of 2-1/2 hours, Ed took us on a delightful tour of the world of rum, exposing us to the incredible diversity of his favorite spirit by tasting offerings from Jamaica, Guyana, Nicaragua, Barbados, Brazil, Martinique and even a small artisanal distillery, high in the mountains of Colorado. Each of the rums was chosen to illustrate different ingredients and manufacturing techniques.

We tasted rums made from sugar, molasses, and fresh sugarcane juice; rums made on pot stills and column stills; rums aged three months and rums aged 15 years. The ability to compare ten, very different rums at one sitting, combined with Ed’s casual and knowledgeable narrative, made for a very special evening.

Anyone who makes their living with adult beverages or who simply wants to learn more about this amazing elixir, needs to jump on a plane or train and get to a Ed Hamilton Rum Seminar.

Better yet, just take a taxi and enjoy yourself.
