There are few things in life he enjoys more than yoga and a glass of grower champagne (and not together). Ed Rudisell is a restaurateur that owns and operates Black Market, Rook, and Siam Square in downtown Indianapolis, is Joshua Gonzales' partner at the award-winning cocktail bar, Thunderbird, and a partner at an upcoming Spanish restaurant in Seattle. As a rum geek, he teaches rum classes around Indianapolis to local bartenders and restaurants, and travels abroad to visit rum distilleries when possible.

And a special thanks to Brad Shoemaker of Creative Zombie Studios for the audio engineering.

It’s the return of André Darlington! The last time he was on the show we were discussing his now-bestselling cocktail book, Booze & Vinyl. And now he’s back to discuss his new book that took him around the world on a cocktail adventure, just months before travel restrictions and COVID-19 shut down the kind of trip he was on. Now he’s back and his new book, Booze Cruise: A Tour of the World’s Essential Mixed Drinks, is available for purchase.
This week he recounts the logistics of such a big trip, how to navigate the cocktail scene in a foreign city, and how he was witness to world-shaking events as he set out to document the great cocktails of the world.
