Friends,

This event is sold out.

I am pleased to say our premiere issue of the Gifted Rums Guide is in the final stages of production and will debut on Saturday evening, March 8 here in Coral Gables, Florida.

The guide will be distributed free through more than 100 top rated liquor stores, as well as bars and specialty venues that feature a fine selection of rum products.

For an advanced preview of our Gifted Rums Guide, here is a link to a PDF file (http://www.giftedrums.com/PDF/GiftedRumsGuide08a2.pdf) for downloading a low resolution version of the publication.

We invite our friends and associates to join us at Coral Gables' historic Venetian Pool (http://www.venetianpool.com) for a grand rum tasting event in celebration of the debut of the premiere issue of the Gifted Rums Guide.

Event: Gifted Rums Guide Debut
Date: Saturday, March 8
Time: 7 to 9pm
Location: Coral Gables Venetian Pool
Address: 2701 De Soto Blvd, Coral Gables, FL 33134
Cost: $10 in advance

We'll be serving some fine food and, of course, sampling more than 30 "Gifted Rums" from around the world.

Allow me to echo Tiare's praise and regret.

Great guide, Robert!

Unfortunately I won't be back to Florida until the end of March, and then I'll be up in Jax.

Beautiful job, Robert. It is too bad it is not distributed in Orlando.

The Rum Guide will be distributed in Orlando and Tampa in September. Based on demand, we'll be expanding distribution across Florida, then working with importers and distributors to move into the top 12 rum markets in the US during 2009.

That counts me out, I'd think:(
I doubt Seattle is top 12 material.

You can always download the PDF file of the guide (http://www.giftedrums.com/PDF/GiftedRumsGuide08a2.pdf).

The Gifted Rums web site will contain all the info in the guide, plus much more, but without the good looking ads.

Plans are underway to allow subscriptions to the guide for $6 a year, which will cover the cost of shipping and handling. As soon as that program is up and running, I'll add a page for subscribing to the web site.
