In this episode, we talked to Justin Boseley, founder of Dead Reckoning Rum, one of the first (if not the only) independent bottlers in Australia. Justin has also imported rum into Australia for over a decade through his company La Rumbla Imports. Between the two roles, he’s had a front row seat to the evolution of rum in Australia in recent years, where everything to the imported products available to the actual rum being made in the country has changed dramatically. We discuss: The difference in Australia’s rum scene now versus the past How working on billionaires’ yachts led him into the rum business What it looks like to come up with your first handful of releases as an independent bottler His philosophy on rum blends Australia’s unique aging environments Why celestial navigation is cool as hell How the pandemic motivated him to go from importer to independent bottler Getting creative with cask finishes and secondary maturations What to watch for from Australia’s recent boom of new rum distilleries Upcoming Dead Reckoning releases And more!
