By Krista Archer Feb. 26, 2019, In What Rum Means to Me

Rum quite literally means the world to me.

It tells the story of exploration, exploitation, and the brutal colonization that gave us the world we live in. Rum is a lens through which we can explore both the past and our current relationships to people, agriculture, and industry at large. Rum is a sweet science, inextricably linked to our history, that continues to evolve and to educate. Rum is born of the people and it is for the people; a truly proletariat spirit. It is a potent escape from which we can choose to remember or forget.

Krista Archer is the Business Development Manager for Spiribam Fine Rum Specialists.
