What a fun experience! If you like rum this is your place. We had a group of 6 and all of us made our own flavored rum. The staff was great ! First you start off with sampling their rum,6 shots I want to say ( hard to remember LOL) then they explain the process of distilling, and the different flavor profiles you have to use. Lots of choices to come up with your perfect flavor of rum.

Nice hospitality and good guidance to create an own rum. 6 different rum tastes/kinds at the beginning (we started at 9 a.m), no problem for rum lovers). Then try to find a mixture of up to ten different aromas (lemon, orange, cinnamon, vanilla, …) while the boiler next to you destilles your basis rum. Then shaking, mixing, tasting, measuring of alcohol level, filling all up in a bottle, label the bottle and seal it with wax all with advices and monitoring of the „lector“. At the end everyone gets a nice certificate and surely a very special rum bottle & a nice memory in your house bar! Cheers!

Great experience! Had an awesome time with this rum making masterclass under "Nellie." She was very knowledgeable about the process teaching all of us on the distillery science and helping each of us to mix our best personal rum. My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves. Highly recommend this. Don't hesitate to book this class!

It was fun, the lady’s were great! You don’t get to make the rum you drink, the rum you drink is too expensive, the t-shirts are too expensive and we found out we paid too much for the activity booking through Viator, but overall it was a great experience

Excellent couple of hours spent learning and making. Well run and organised experience with just enough science to understand the principles of rum making.
