      In this episode, we take a deep dive into one of the iconic series of the rum world: Habitation Velier, Luca Gargano's collection of unique pot still rums from all corners of the globe.

      We start with a look back at a decade of Habitation releases and what's made the series such an enduring presence in the modern rum world.

      We then taste through the most recent 2025 releases, including a South African rum from Mhoba Distillery, their second release of Reunion's legendary HERR rum from Distillerie de Savanna, and a bottle from the now closed Renegade Distillery in Grenada.

      Finally, we throw out some of our own ideas for where the series could go next.

      What have been some of the standout Habitation Velier releases to you? Have thoughts on any of the releases we tasted? Leave a comment and let us know!

      For the fourth year in a row, we're back with our annual Rumcast Fantasy Rum Draft. In this annual competition, we compete head-to-head to “draft” rums from the selection of an online liquor store (or, in this year's case, TWO online liquor stores) for 10 different rum categories. The goal? To create the superior desert island rum bar.

      Following his big win last year, we were excited to welcome 2024 champion Arminder Randhawa from The Rum Revival back to defend his crown!

      We drafted our picks from the rum inventories currently available (as of 9-7-2025) at Burlington Wine and Spirits and Baytowne Wine and Spirits. The categories were:

      Unaged

      Lightly Aged (1-4 Years)

      Aged (5-13 Years)

      Long Aged (14+ Years)

      Cane Juice Unaged

      Cane Juice Aged (Any Length)

      Multi-Country Blend

      Non-Caribbean

      100% Column

      100% Pot

      After you listen, head to rumcast.com/vote to access the complete list of picks, along with a link to our Fantasy Rum Draft Command Center if you'd like to have a look.

      May the best team win!
