We are calling all rum lovers! TheRumLab.com is thrilled to announce the 3rd Los Angeles Rum Fest (POP UP), also known as the California Rum Fest SoCal Edition. This boutique-style event will occur on Thursday, August 29th, 2024, at the Haas Building DTLA Rooftop.
You read right! The event’s classification as a pop-up is due to its simplified structure: two seminars, a music area with a guest DJ, powered by LA’s Caña Rum Bar, and other engaging experiences.
All of it is infused by the skyline view of LA with the iconic Golden Coast sunset while sipping on topline premium rum. Yeah! An unforgettable night.
Alongside brand ambassadors of premium brands such as Barbancourt, Clément, and Santa Teresa, the festival promises an intimate and educational experience that elevates the rum category through dynamics like expositions, talks, seminars, and much more.
“Rum Festivals are more than a tasting experience. The events have evolved from just a party experience to an educational platform where the trade, rum aficionado, tiki cravers, and newcomers come to enrich their knowledge.”- Federico Hernández, TheRumLab, and Los Angeles Rum Fest founder.
The first seminar will be “French Heritage in Rhum” by Ewan Henderson (partner at The Rum Geography), a serial entrepreneur and industry veteran of 25+ years, and Daniel Tindal (Commercial Director at Crillon Importers), an expert in the industry with experience in marketing, advertising, and sales for acclaimed and recognized brands.
On the other hand, Federico J. Hernández, founder of The Rum Lab, will be hosting the Puerto Rican Rum in Tiki Cocktails & Beyond seminar, along with other distinguished industry experts from Puerto Rico.
This talk will be an insightful space about the role of Puerto Rican by exploring its rich history, unique characteristics, and versatility, showcasing its essential place in the tiki tradition and its potential in modern mixology.
