History and Classification: "Know Thy Rums" Featuring Mezan Rum.

Time: 12pm -1:30pm

Rum is a sprawling category, defying simple categorization - "white, "gold" and "dark" can mean dozens of flavor profiles from bottle to bottle, making it essential to "know thy rums.”

Students will taste through a selection of rums from around the world, discuss their production methodology, and the best way to apply them in Tiki and tropical cocktails.

Students will walk away armed with a solid understanding of the category and a base of knowledge from which to continue an intelligent exploration and study of the world of rum.

Class Inspirations:

As Don the Beachcomber famously quipped, "What one rum can do, three can do better.” He created a style of cocktail that had never been seen - or imagined - in his "Rhum Rhapsodies" which combined multiple spirits to capture the best of what each had to offer, laying the foundation for layered, complex and richly flavored cocktails.

Class Description:

From Donn the Beachcomber's "Rhum Rhapsodies" - cocktails that blended multiple spirits and components in a way that had never been attempted up until that point, to the way bartenders of today are incorporating newly available ingredients such as agave, yuzu, and fat washing into drinks. The realm of Tiki cocktails proves time and time again to be a hotbed of cocktail innovation, inspiring bartenders to experiment with a spectrum of flavors and applications that seldom appear on other styles of cocktail.

In the realm of presentation, Tiki cocktails have led the way in attention to detail in terms of elaborate vessels, garnishes, and the use of smoke, fire, and the like. The adage “The feast starts with the eyes” speaks to the role

the appearance of a cocktail plays in creating anticipation and impact in a cocktail. In this class we will cover specialty ice for Tiki, garnish cuts, and more.
