This coming 14th of July, the Harvest festival in the theme of the potato takes place in Amsterdam Roest, organized by Youth Food Movement and artist Sascha Landshoff.

After several years of trend-spotting we’ve challenged ourselves to translate a hospitality trend to a practical promotion.

Tres Hombres rum stands for a combination of several passions: sailing, traditional ships, crew training, a healthy environment, good harmony and of course rum. Tres Hombres rum comes from the Caribbean, created by three friends Arjen van der Veen and Jorne Langelaan from the Netherlands and Andreas Lucker from Austria. This rum is fully emission-free transported, without any fuel or engine and therefor carries the label Fairtransport. The rum is arriving in the Netherlands (Amsterdam). Tres Hombres invites all interested people to come to the Tres Hombres ship in Amsterdam (the Netherlands), to taste their rum and chocolate. This is possible between 6 and 16 June. See the website for more information.
