Introducing the First-Ever Rum Fest Awards at Stockholm Rum Fest 2025!
For the very first time, we’re raising the bar—literally. The Rum Fest Awards are here to celebrate excellence in rum, and 2025 marks the thrilling launch of this new tradition. With 51 exceptional rums competing across 5 distinct categories, each entry was blind-tasted and meticulously judged by a panel of true experts: Duane Sheppard and his bar manager Dominic from Cane Rum Society, Rom Robban of Rum Profile, and renowned rum and chocolate connoisseur Duane Dove.
Who will take home the glory? Join us and find out!
