In this episode, we chat with Jen Akin, general manager of Rumba in Seattle, about the ins and outs of managing one of the world’s top rum bars. Jen talked us through creating new rum blends, managing a 20-page rum list, tasting rum from 1892, where cocktail ideas come from, the opening of the new bar next door (Inside Passage), the challenges of presenting rum to a broad spectrum of clientele, what makes Rumba special, rum regions she’s most excited about, recreating an Amazon box as a drinking vessel, and much more.
