About

Behind Every Great Rum Is a Powerful Woman
Once known as a sailor's drink, rum has matured into a refined spirit. In some Caribbean countries, rum is offered as a libation to the gods. In others, it is aged and savored on the rocks. But in the most magical places, rum is distilled by women. Inside “Rum Rebels”, you'll find personal anecdotes from master blenders, fabulous recipes for artisan rum cocktails, and the inside scoop on the magic behind Appleton, Zacapa, Cachaça Maria Izabel, Brugal, and more.

The art of cocktails, rum, and women. A pirate staple, rum has been the drink of rebels since the Old World. Now, there's a new generation of rebels, the businesswomen curating the taste of today's best rum companies. Part rum cocktail book, part ode to feminism, “Rum Rebels” is a story of female empowerment in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Looking at more than a dozen rum distilleries, each chapter of “Rum Rebels” profiles women in leadership, their rum, and the perfect cocktail pairing.
