Today's the day! We’re revealing the identity of the second cask selection that will be featured in our upcoming Rumcast Reserve release. And since two reveals are more fun than one, we're also unveiling the finished (pending TTB approval) label design.
In addition to the reveals, we also take you through the work that went into them — from the twists and turns designing our label to the debates we had when choosing from our top 8 casks at The Main Rum Company.
We also make one final decision regarding the label live during the recording, after some spirited debate of course.
Have a listen and let us know what you think of our choices! We're excited to hear your thoughts and any questions you have.

The goal? To create the superior desert island rum bar.
Following his big win last year, we were excited to welcome 2024 champion Arminder Randhawa from The Rum Revival back to defend his crown!

Unaged
Lightly Aged (1-4 Years)
Aged (5-13 Years)
Long Aged (14+ Years)
Cane Juice Unaged
Cane Juice Aged (Any Length)
Multi-Country Blend
Non-Caribbean
100% Column
100% Pot
