The cocktail class afterwards was a blast. Made a rum based margarita and rum runner which in then consume. Highly recommend for a fun afternoon

5.00The three ladies at the entrance were very welcoming. Ria was very informative on the tour and could answer all the questions asked by the group. Adrian for the cocktail workshop was great, kept an eye on all the tables to insure that everyone was following his instructions to make the cocktails and at the same time maintaining a light and breezy atmosphere. Thank you, Mount Gay for a great experience.
Rum times. Good times.

1.00I arrived to the workshop before it ended. I was not expecting to participate nor a refund because I understood their reasoning but to just say hello to my sister who was fortunate enough to make it to the workshop on time. The greeter at the front acted irritated and refused to let me in the area although I paid to be there and was not insisting on participating. I merely wanted to surprise my sister letting her know I made it to the island for her birthday. Poor experience
