Rum 101 for Dummies Like Me invites you on a spirited and humorous voyage into the world of rum—from the frosty streets of Newfoundland to the tropical shores of the Caribbean. Author Jeff Peddle, a former George Street bouncer turned rum collector and self-described part-time philosopher, delves into the rich, often tumultuous history of rum. Exploring its bitter origins linked to the slave trade, and its colorful chapters—pirates, Prohibition, naval lore, tattoos, and iconic characters like the “real McCoy”—this book blends wit with whiskey-soaked history. You’ll learn about Newfoundland’s passionate affinity for Lamb’s, Screech, and Jamaican rums and uncover tales of Captain Morgan’s tsunami-ravaged grave. Designed for bartenders, history buffs, and curious sippers alike, it’s a rollicking blend of laughter, learning, and plenty of “Newfie” rum stories that makes each bottle—and every story—come alive.
