What this episode covers
In this episode, Editor Will Price, who runs Gear Patrol's Home & Drinks content, gets into why rum is the hot spirit of the moment–and why he thinks it's an excellent, affordable alternative for whiskey lovers especially. You'd be forgiven for knowing little about rum as a serious spirit, and Will is advocating for rum as something that's much, much more than booze you dump into a glass of coca cola.
