We cannot say enough about this place. Willoughby was fantastic! She walked us through each of the rums and their unique attributes during the tasting. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the distillation process and offered some truly great advice along the way. We ended up leaving with a few bottles and were so glad we stopped in. Highly recommended! Five stars all around!

Jul 6, 2026 · Google ReviewWe visited after the St Michael’s running festival with our running club. We started in the tasting room/shop. The server was very knowledgeable as she was letting us sample the different flavors of rum. We then went into the speakeasy like space to have cocktails. The drinks were amazing. The service was exceptional. The owner interacted with all of the customers and even made us a delicious espresso martini that wasn’t on the menu. Definitely go! You will have a hard time deciding which bottles to bring home with you. We left with three.
May 18, 2025 · Google ReviewStopped in for a tasting and found a very friendly staff proud of their products. I tried several of the rums and enjoyed their dark rum the most. My taste is more towards whiskeys, but there was no pressure and it was a fun visit. I had some of their rum in a mai tai at one of the local establishments and it was again very good.
Oct 16, 2025 · Google ReviewGreat place to visit with excellent customer service and a rum for everyone. Visited the shop after seeing their sampler package at a hotel. Very fun experience, the shop smells amazing, very good mix of branded goods and spirits. Sara, was very personable and knowledgeable. She provided several recommendations and recipes based on my palette. This business is definitely worth a visit.
