I just want to say. To Jeff Gimondo coming in for “just a tasting”. I was the person she was taking care of in front of you with a $380 rum order. If you can’t afford to be here, then just say so. This place has the best rum and tours. Amazing staff and amazing rum. Go-to stop while you’re here. Second year at this distillery

What an amazing place! Super cool and probably the nicest staff we encountered. The frozen drinks are a must ! Take the tour ! It’s really neat seeing the behind the scenes of a bottle of The Finest Rum ! Absolutely enjoyed the experience!

Right on one of the main streets near the square. As we walked by, we were invited in to take a quick tour and hear the story of the place by the friendly folks who work there. It's small, but they have samples and stuff to buy - including their rum. The good stuff was a bit out of our price range, but we enjoyed visiting.

Front service staff was alright, stone faced, and not very informative. The tour is free every 15 minutes and you wait out on the side of the bldg. Just ask the store staff about it and they’ll give you the tickets. They let you sample 100+ proof rum that’s very smooth. The tour and tour guide was informative on the distillery process.

So many choices, free samples of all the different flavors! But the ready to go frozen Pina Colada’s are so refreshing and delicious. Top it off with a floater or just enjoy the cold tasty beverage as you explore old town Key West. Free tours will have you entertained and learn the history of this distillery. Great place to check out, when you’re in Key West for the day. Stop in for your cool down or grab a bottle(s) of your favorite flavor/flavors!

Best frozen Pina Colada on the island! You can sample any of the 10+ varieties of rum, which can be a fun way to spend 15 minutes exploring which flavor you prefer. You can get a frozen Pina Colada with a rum topper which was surprisingly amazing. Free tours of the rum factory are available also.

The coconut mojito was really good. The tour was very informative. 157 proof was really good. Staff is not the most welcoming.

Make sure to ask for a receipt. They added an extra drink to our order and seemed shady when we asked about it. They didn't want to void the transaction and ended up just giving us cash as a refund. Drinks were good though. Edit: Dropped to a 1 star from 2 after the owner response. To clarify why it felt shady and not just being negative. We were the only people in the building so def not busy. When we asked for a printed receipt we had to be a bit pushy about it. After seeing the double charge and asking about it she didn't seem surprised. She offered a voucher for a drink instead of a refund. Then she said the void could take a few days and I said I was fine with that. Then said she needs a manager to do the transaction. Then after going to the machine for a minute she came back and asked if she can just give us cash. It all just felt too avoidant. Not trying to be negative, I understand mistakes happen and some people aren't great at fixing their mistakes. It gets better with practice.
