One of two - We started at Four Square before heading to the Mount Gay Experience so we had seen a distillery so didn’t feel we needed to see another although others only going here might be disappointed. The staff are friendly and enthusiastic. We sampled 6 rums which was more than enough following our previous trip!

This tour really tells you the full history of the famous bajun Rum and watching where it’s made makes it more amazing. - Tour guide Romel made the experience fun and he was extremely knowledgeable.

The teacher matters - Larissa, our guide, was amazing! The history, the way she describes the rum, and the suggestions she gave for pairings. One of the most educational, fun tours I’ve taken.

Magical Mountain Gay Rum Tour, Tasting and Mixology - This is the second time , in the last 11 months, that I have been to Mount Gay. Both times I’ve done the tour, rub sampling and the mixology class and both times have left a lasting impression on both groups I’ve gone with. The rich, 330 years of uninterrupted distilling, and the genuine knowledge and love of the brand is apparent within minutes of arriving. Learning about the pride, professionalism and the storied life and history of Blue was heartwarming. Touring the barrel warehouse and learning more about the storage and processing of rum was truly interesting. BUT going back to the Welcome Center for the rum sampling and mixology was truly a memory that will be embedded in our group of 7’s minds forever. We loved sampling and gaining an understanding of the nuisances and notes of each of the four rums we tasted. Rumel and Roshan were the absolute best. They made the whole day magical. They are a rockstar duo and I can’t wait to come back to Barbados and Mount Gay again.
