Drum Circle Distilling is going to need a spare room to show off
all of the international awards Siesta Key Rums have won since it opened six
years ago. The latest of these is the Caribbean Journal’s Rum Awards 2017
where the won “Best Spiced Rum”.
The judges’ comments made it very clear as to Troy Roberts’
mastery of this category. “Only one rum company has ever appeared on every Rum
Awards since its inception. Drum Circle Distilling, a Sarasota, Fla. craft
distillery produces the best spiced rum on the planet,” the judges said. “It’s
called Siesta Key Rum, and its recipe of authentic spices and honey makes for
an almost impossibly delicious expression.”
Congratulations to Troy Roberts and his crew for winning this award for
the sixth year in a row. My friend Troy
Roberts is one of the masters of innovation when it comes to spiced and
flavored rums. His Toasted Coconut Rum
is another example of his fine craftsmanship and innovative mind when it comes
to rum making.
