Speciality: Rhum Agricole, Cachaça, Craft Rum, Flavoured & Spiced, Asian Rum, Emerging Regions

Isla discovered rum through the rhum agricole tradition of Martinique, where she spent two years apprenticing at distilleries across the French Caribbean. Her palate spans the rum world — from the grassy cane juice spirits of the Antilles to the craft rums of Australia, the cachaças of Brazil, and the emerging distillers of Southeast Asia. She writes for Rum.Directory celebrating agricole, cachaça, spiced, flavoured, and world rums, with a gift for connecting production technique to flavour in vivid, accessible prose. She is a certified Maître Rhumier and sits on the tasting panel of the Global Rum Awards.
