From its origins in the West Indies and its seafaring associations, rum is now distilled all over the world, and its popularity as a spirit is experiencing a new rise. Ian Burrell, a passionate advocate for all things rum, reveals the spirit's long and complex history; the production, distillation, and aging process; and the myriad flavors of this delicious drink available today.
