This is a double-feature episode. Our guest owns a rum company and is a multi-instrumentalist including the drums.
Eric Kaye is the founder of Holmes Cay Rum, a premium brand that seeks and curates the finest rums from around the world and releases them without additives.
After exploring nearly every island in the Caribbean, and drinking exceptional rum along the way, Kaye realized the U.S. spirits market lacked access to those special, rare rums from around the globe. Recognizing that access to unadulterated rums was extremely limited in the United States, Kaye saw an opportunity to focus on hard-to-obtain aged expressions, presented with transparency, and launched Holmes Cay in 2019.
Kaye’s deep rum knowledge and connections with highly regarded distilleries worldwide enable him to bottle and import rare casks and terroir-based blends to discerning drinkers and rum aficionados alike.
Eric and I talk about the following:
- His 25-year career in the music business, writing and producing songs and commercials that you have heard before
- Being an independent bottler
- How he got into rum and his journey on starting Holmes Cay
We hit him with the In Four Sips & Beats or Less
- Neat or on Ice?
- Who's on your Mt Rushmore of drummers?
- You travel all around the world, what’s the one place that your heart is with?
- Did video really kill the radio star?
