Fun and rum making on Antigua! - My wife and I had a blast taking the class and becoming official rum makers ourselves! Got to sample 5-6 different rums to start with and see what we'd like. The coffee and the cream rums were delicious and easy to go down! Lots of laughs with the two who taught us. The male (sorry, I don't remember his name) was very encouraging to my wife, who now likes rum!! A fun way to spend a couple of hours just off beautiful Galleon Beach. Would recommend you add some time to eat something at their restaurant as well.

Amazing experience! Must do while in Antigua! - What an amazing time! You get to enjoy a rum tasting, do some rum making, and learn a little about the history of rum - all in one afternoon. Playing with beakers and making custom labels for our rum was a blast. And you get to wrap it all up by dipping the bottle in wax? So cool. Can’t recommend this enough and it’s a great value for couples!

A fun and unique experience! - This was such a fun and informative experience!! We got to learn all about the history of rum, how it's made, what can be done to change the flavor profiles, and all sorts of other fun tidbits! We got to taste a variety of different rums they make at the distillery, as well as different flavors we could add to our own custom bottle of rum. My husband and I ended up using mango and coconut flavors with just a splash of banana. Can't wait to use it to make some fruity summertime cocktails! The certificate they gave us at the end is hilarious. Our custom bottle of rum is by far the best souvenir ever!

Fantastic fun creating your own Rum! - Such a fun activity! The hosts were very knowledgable.. i didnt expect to learn so much. And leaving with our own personalised bottle of rum was amazing! It is situated right next to Galleon beach which is gorgeous and perfect for a stroll before/after. Would definitely recommend if you get the chance!

Make your own rum - go on it’s fun - We were a couple at 1 rum station and had the most fabulous time. The host was knowledgeable, personable and entertaining. We were led through the rum making process sampling examples as we went. Then we got to the flavoured rums. Oh my word - taste sensations!! We were then taken through the process of creating our own flavoured rum. This culminated in bottling and wax sealing our creation. Then unexpectedly we were presented with certificates. Brilliant!!! After the rum class we ate across the way at the beach bar and although they got our food order wrong we both enjoyed a well cooked tasty meal. 10/10 from us
