booze travel time

This season’s booze travel has me in Florida for both Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America and Rum Renaissance in April. I’m looking forward to checking out Rum Renaissance, affectionately known as “Rum Fest” as I’ve never been before.

For May, the brand new New Mexico Cocktails and Culture looks really interesting. The three-day event takes place in Santa Fe. But the show to catch is MCC which brings on new leadership and new venues. Gala tickets are now on sale.

Also brand new this year is Cane Camp. Similar to Camp Runamok which focuses on whiskey, Cane Camp heads to Puerto Rico for rum.
