The Tahona Society’s Collective Spirit Project competition kicked off last month at Living Room in Maboneng.
About 2 hours from Joburg, on a farm along the R70 between Henneman and Riebeeckstad in the Free State, I joined the guys at Whistler Rum Distillery for their end-of-the-month jol.

A week later I went to the Pan-African Rum Festival and tasted as many South African rums and cocktails as possible. Now I’m plotting my own cocktail mixes! But before I get ahead of myself, let’s go back to the basics of rum 101.

It was the perfect introduction to wine for me and for many others who discover an appreciation for wine with an eager palate.
