    You are wrong...the higher the micron number, the bigger the holes. The lower the micron, the more it strains. The higher the micron number, the more pulp/particles pass through.

    I can tell you from experience that “tasting” vs “class” makes a big difference in marketing an in-store event. Given you want to educate them on rum and not just have them try something a brand is pushing, it’s important to convey that. Might not be the magic bullet but it was a big shift for me when I started hosting in-store events. At least this is the feedback I got once I changed the language. Good luck on future ones!!

    We get people coming up to us while outside putting Halloween decorations trying to sell services... I always ask them, would you hire a company from some stranger just showing up at your house? They panic for a second and some say yes, but then I tell them to get the F off my property after we tried to dismiss them nicely... Saying no is so important and very tough for me to do too... Time has been my number one worst thing lately... Haven't even listened to your podcast since August... Because I want to actually listen, not background conversation, and just not enough time or not in the right mindset... Proud of you though!

    That's awesome. For what it's worth, since you're now a wine retailer, what this world really needs is vermouth that comes in bottles of less than 375 ml. That's because a person making drinks at home, who doesn't make the same thing every time, is going to see a bottle of vermouth turn sour before it's used up. So the value of a bottle is based on the amount of time it'll last in the refrigerator, not the price per ounce.

    as the Place which originated Gin...im saying England here! We have 2 distinct styles London Dry & Plymouth dry. Notwithstanding the pictures of London as portrayed by Hogarth in 1751 by "Gin Lane" which showed London in its Gin-ravaged age. Fast forward to the 21st Century, and we have a wealth of distilleries making Gin, its fast to brew & distill, requires no Age statements, no barrel aging and you just have to dunk in a whole load of botanical. Beefeater, Tanquerey, Bombay Sapphire, Gordon's, Gibleys, Plymouth Gin, Booths, Sipsmith, Hendricks, Martin Millers, Greenalls, Finsbury, Oxford, Drift, Stones, Lord's, and a host of more modern gin Distillers have abounded with their own fans and flavour profiles. Find the few you like and stick with what you like. Be safe & Stay salty
