Join us for a conversation with Bryan Inman, better known as The Rum Champion, a bartender, educator, and community builder who has made it his mission to celebrate the world's most diverse and misunderstood spirit. Bryan shares the origin story of the Rum Curious Club, which began as casual rum parties with friends and has now grown to over 2,100 members hosting events across California. He also shares the inspiration behind the Rum Curious Summit, an annual gathering that brings together attendees and dozens of rum producers for tastings, seminars, and celebration. From tasting over 1,500 rums to bartending at The Lucky Tiki in West Hollywood, Bryan's journey is a testament to the power of obsession turned profession. Tune in for an inspiring look at building community around shared curiosity, challenging preconceptions, and why there truly is a rum for everyone.
