Cleo Farman had thirteen successful years as one of Manchester’s most well-known bar owners, with Odd, Oddest, Odder and the Blue Pig and was once Richard Branson’s PA! Creating her own rum Brand, Diablesse, she aims to champion a more female-inclusive approach to the spirit. She’s brutally honest about the challenges she faced in the process and divulges all with a great deal of humour. This episode is co-presented by our fabulous friend, wine judge and PCDA ceremony host Kate Goodman. Kate set up Reserve Wines in 2003, which has expanded to include 5 sites across Manchester and Cheshire - she also knows a few things about setting up a business from scratch! Rum chat (in every sense), start-up stories, cocktail tips and a healthy dose of laughs - just as we like it.
