    This is a great experience when vacationing here. Gary was very knowledgeable and he gave me some history about the island and about the moonshine. It was also interactive and the vibes were great. The food paired with the tasting is a chefs kiss. 10 out of 10 I recommend.

    This was a nice experience. The drink guide was fun engaging and gave a good history about the rum and Puerto Rico. The infused rum was good and strong. We also tried the Puerto Rico fried Street food it was delicious. This is an experience that one should try.

    PERFECT experience!!!!

    Great experience for first time travelers, rum lovers or groups looking for a fun activity in old San Juan!!! Our host was knowledgeable, easy to talk to and funny! Even gave me and my husband restaurants nearby for dinner recommendations. 10000/10 would recommend 🔥 if you have a light tolerance (like me), prepare to feel the rum LOL. My favorite was the coffee

    Great Experience!

    Awesome awesome awesome! We enjoyed every minute and learned some Puerto Rican history along the way. It was cool to learn about each rum and what part of the island it comes from. The host was the best part… very knowledgeable and entertaining. Highly recommended this experience for a more personal experience.

Gary truly enjoys sharing the rich history of the island and the traditions behind our local spirits, so it means a lot to hear that you connected with both the storytelling and the experience. We’re especially glad you loved the food pairing — our traditional Puerto Rican fritters including bacalaitos, sorullos, empanadillas, and alcapurrias, served alongside our rum tasting experience, are a big part of what makes this tour unique. We love giving our guests a true Caribbean food experience full of authentic island flavors. Our goal is to create one of the most memorable rum tasting tours in Puerto Rico, combining culture, history, local street food, and great vibes — so it means everything to know you felt that.
