Go to rumcast.com/vote after listening to help determine the winner of this year's Fantasy Rum Draft. Thank you! For the fourth year in a row, we're back with our annual Rumcast Fantasy Rum Draft. In this annual competition, we compete head-to-head to “draft” rums from the selection of an online liquor store (or, in this year's case, TWO online liquor stores) for 10 different rum categories. The goal? To create the superior desert island rum bar. Following his big win last year, we were excited to welcome 2024 champion Arminder Randhawa from The Rum Revival back to defend his crown! We drafted our picks from the rum inventories currently available (as of 9-7-2025) at Burlington Wine and Spirits and Baytowne Wine and Spirits . The categories were: Unaged Lightly Aged (1-4 Years) Aged (5-13 Years) Long Aged (14+ Years) Cane Juice Unaged Cane Juice Aged (Any Length) Multi-Country Blend Non-Caribbean 100% Column 100% Pot After you listen, head to rumcast.com/vote  to access the complete list of picks, along with a link to our Fantasy Rum Draft Command Center if you'd like to have a look. May the best team win!","meta_description":"Did you know you can support The Rumcast on Patreon now and get bonus episodes, happy hours, and more? You can!
