    The rum tasting experience was absolutely great! Our guide took us on an enjoyable journey of learning, sharing the history, process, and unique flavors behind each rum we sampled. It was both educational and fun. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the tasting itself was well organized. I walked away with a new appreciation for rum and the craftsmanship behind it. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking to try something authentic and memorable!

    I have done many whiskey tastings but never a rum tasting. I LOVED this, our guide Felix was very informative and walked us through the history of the rum and the nuances of what we were trying. From last looking, smelling, tasting, and tasking with different foods wit was perfect. The shop has rum, coffee, cocoa, and may other gifts for purchase. Felix allowed us to shop with no pressure to buy but was available to answer all questions. I would recommend this 110%

    We enjoyed the rum...

    Louise_C, Sep 2025
    We enjoyed the rum tasting but it would have been better if there was more than us two rum tasting. This was a bit of a let down. The rum was really good, with the cheese, grapes, chocolate.

    Great Experience!

    We had the best time on this excursion. Our driver picked us up and safely transported us to Taino where our rum expert taught us so much and had us taste 4 magnificent rums along with cheese, grapes, and chocolate. I love that there was no high pressure sales tactics by anyone. They let you know what is available and it is then all up to you. Very refreshing! As soon as it was over it took maybe 8-10 minutes for our return driver to pick us up. I definitely recommend this!

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Rum Tasting Experience

    The Rum Tasting Experience was really good! Ride was smooth, had AC, and music. The atmosphere was pleasant, the room was decorated very nicely and the presentation was very insightful. The instructor was knowledgeable, the rum was strong lol (wine lady here), but good! I enjoyed it! I would recommend.

    We really enjoyed learning about rum and doing a professional tasting and trying foods that enhanced the flavor of the rum. Our guide, Rudy (?), was personable, knowledgeable, and entertaining.

    Fun and Rum

    Vanessa_S, Feb 2024
    What an amazing experience from the presentation to the tastings. The chocolate was amazing along with the pairings which included cheese and macadamia nuts. The rum was magnificent learning the proper way to drink them was my favorite. So much shopping can be done as well for a reasonable price 10/10 would recommend again!!!

    Best Rum Around

    Kat_C, Feb 2024
    This was my husband and I’s second time doing this tour. We went in 2023 with friends and had to come back again so our family could also experience it. We ended up having the same guide as last year, Wendell. He is extremely knowledgeable of the rum and how it’s made. We always have lots of laughs with him and he truly makes us feel like we’re familia when we’re there. Not only do you get to try rum, but there is are mini tastings of their chocolate and coffee as well. The shop this experience is located in is very cute with great prices for buying unique gifts for your home or loved ones back home. We highly recommend this experience!

    Interesting

    Heidi_A, Feb 2024
    The bus was in rough condition and I got slightly motion sick, which rarely happens. We were taken back and thought we had gotten on the wrong tour when we were given a tour of a souvenir shop. Turns out some of those picked up along the way were shopping, and the tour was at the back of the store. The actual tour and tasting was just under an hour long. Wendel is very knowledgeable and helpful providing great information. If you are a lightweight like me, you will be grateful you aren't driving, but it was an interesting experience.

    Response from Host, Feb 2024

    Good morning, I'm glad you liked the experience. I'm sorry about your dizziness on the bus, as for the conditions of the bus we will take it into account. Thank you so much. The area for the experience is perceived in the back because the tour begins at the main entrance of the store. Thank you very much again for your comment, Punta Cana is your home.

    The art of rum tasting.

    Aisha_H, Jan 2024
    I learned so much about the history of rum making and how to properly smell and taste the rum. This was a wonderful experience.

    The staff was excellent! My group loved the experience of trying rums older than 20 years of age! Wendell (rum expert) and our driver (apologies for not recalling name) were professional, cool and simply adorable people!
