Rumbustion with Rebecca and Martin Cate

Shift Drink

Rum nerds and mid-century Mavens, Martin and Rebecca Cate are back on the show!

Check out Tiki Guru and The Cult of Tiki to hear previous interviews.

This week, we’re diving into their place in the world of rum and the Rumbustion Society at Smuggler’s Cove, where their collection of fine and rare rums tops the 1000 mark. Over the course of the years, their rum club has offered amazing perks such as distillery tours to Jamaica, Martinique, and all over the US. As the club gained in popularity, and the bar’s profile grew, it became a full-time job for the duo just to manage the inventory and memberships.

This week it’s all about rum. Refer back to previous episodes to hear about Martin’s start in Tiki, and how to power couple became synonymous with Bay Area Tiki.
