When you arrive at the distillery, meet your guide — a ‘Rum Ambassador’ — who will lead you through your rum experience.

Next, visit the ‘rum buffet,’ where you can taste up to 17 of the different rums and rum liqueurs on display; additional premium rums are sometimes available for tasting upon request, so just ask your guide. Then purchase any of your favorites to take home!
Your tour ends with hotel drop-off in Castries.
