Welcome to The Rum Bum Blog! Your front-row seat to the world of rum, Caribbean flavour, and island culture. I’m Kevin, but you can call me Snooky. A lifelong rum enthusiast, author, and ex-restaurateur who has spent decades travelling through the Caribbean, tasting, learning, and sharing stories along the way.
Here you’ll find more than just notes on a good bottle of rum. From the heritage of Jamaican funk to the smooth blends of the Dominican Republic, to the food, music, and spirit of the islands themselves. My aim with these blogs is to take you on a journey of discovery, exploring and learning all about the world of Caribbean rum, discovering the nuances and intricacies of this amazing cane spirit we call rum.
