“Our rums are 100% Trinidadian, made in one distillery on one island. Much like a single malt only better” –  Master Distiller Georges

In our second online live seminar, we are thrilled to be joined by global Brand Ambassador, entrepreneur, and bartender Daniyel Jones, of the House of Angostura.  Angostura may be best known for being the world’s most well known maker of aromatic bitters, but  they are also makers of highly awarded rums and amaro; with medals from Rum Masters and listed on Drinks International’s Top 10 Best Selling Rum Brands of 2020.

Join Daniyel Jones, the House of Angostura’s Global Brand Ambassador, in a special live online seminar for bartenders, industry, media, trade, and interested consumers.  In this one hour online event, Daniyel will share his passion for Angostura’s rums and amaro; will tell us a bit about Angostura’s history; and will share what makes Angostura products so special – all split up with a few of his favourite rum and amaro cocktail recipes.  There will be a type-in Q&A session if time permits.

Register now, grab a cocktail shaker, and we’ll see you on Thursday, May 21, 2pm PDT.
