Did you know the first ever woman Master Blender is responsible for Appleton Estate Rum?
I really enjoyed this conversation with Mrs. Joy Spence, who joined Appleton in 1981 and became Master Blender in 1997. She chats with me about growing up in Jamaica, the responsibility she feels as being the first woman to hold her title, her favorite places to vacation, and so much more.
With Sephina, Ken Gilbert celebrates the life of entertainer, philanthropist, and activist Josephine Baker. Through our conversation, hear about Ken’s illustrious career in marketing, why he started Sephina, how he feels about being considered a ‘Black-owned brand’, and so much more. This was one of my favorite convos to-date!
Ken asked for tough questions so I hope I delivered! What do you think?!
