Ron del Barrilito Rum-proeverij Tour zonder wachtrij

One of the highlights of this family trip! It did feel a little short for the money (the tour part could have been more interesting/informative maybe?), but a fun tasting experience and the drinks at the bar before and after were delicious!

Absolute wonderful way to learn and taste the history of rum in Puerto Rico. So much history in a closet knit setting that you can feel the love they have for their rum.

First off, Puerto Rico is #1 on my bucket list. With that said a Rum Tour was definitely gonna happen. After reading several reviews The “Ron Del Barrilito” Tour and Mixology experience was top notch. Everyone in the Visitor center was Polite and Professional. After checking in we received our buzzer and went to the bar for our free drink. The host told us what drinks were included in the mixology experience (Old Fashion, Encanto Daiquiri and Pina Colada). At the Bar I got a Rum & Coke and my wife got a Lavender drink. We enjoyed our drinks inside and on the outside terrace. We also checked out the gift shop. When our scheduled tour time came around the buzzer went off and we joined Eric our tour guide. Eric is very well spoken and a true professional. The tour began with a visit to the home of the original owners on the estate. Great views and photo opportunities. Then onto the factory, a few views along the way and pho ops. The Factory is a small operation with High Quality Rum as a result. The Creation process is a secret recipe, but you see the Barrels and how they move from point to point in the creation process. You will experience the smells of the process. The 1952 Barrel has an amazing story. Lastly we followed up with the Mixology experience. No talent needed. Eric was an excellent instructor as he walked us through the three drinks. One by one, with clear instructions on everything that was used. The best part - Enjoying the drinks you made (full portions) no skimping here. A Truly wonderful experience full of laughter and your senses will be enlightened. We had so much rum and fun. We also ordered the Chips and Chicken w/ cilantro. Delicious. It paired well with the rum drinks. Before we left we took advantage of the buy to 3 Star bottles and get a bottle of Coquito. Oh and the bar will give you free samples of the rum if you ask. As we left in our Lyft, I truly appreciated the Ron Del Barrilito experience. It felt personal and full of the PR Rum Culture. This was an absolutely fantastic experience and will be a lasting memory for my wife and I. Thank you Eric, Thank you Ron Del Barrilito visitor staff. Highly recommend - 5 Stars all day. Oh did I mention, the Rum drinks are so delicious. Very smooth and the Best Pina Colada ever.

We had such a great time learning about the history, our host was amazing and very knowledgeable. The rum was delicious as well enough that we bought a bottle of the four star to take home.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable professional and amazing. We enjoyed it definitely recommend it

Had a fabulous time, Pedro was outstanding, knowledgeable and entertaining. Rum tasting was highlighted. Better informed now. Highly recommend.

First of all, the drinks at the bar are top notch! Our tour guide’s name was Rogelio and he was very informative. We really enjoyed the history tour and also we enjoyed the privilege of tasting the fine rums, especially the 4 and 5 stars. We loved the certificates too! We are going to keep them in our bar area at home. This was worthwhile. Also, the property itself is beautiful. I think it might save some money to buy this tour directly on the website of the distillery instead of through Viator because there really was no “line” to skip. But it was useful since I booked other tours on Viator so I kept track of things easier on the app.

Wonderful tour with Timmy. The rum tasting was great but I really enjoyed the behind the scenes look at how the rum is made and stored. Al’s quite rare that tours let you sample $750 bottles. Great experience.

We had a lovely and lucky private experience with Octavio. He answered all our questions and gave us a great experience to remember. The rum tasting was amazing and a truly memorable experience. Would recommend 100% and the giftshop is great especially the experience we had after purchasing the 4 star rum. Cocktails are also delicious. Thank you Octavio!!

The rum was delicious and the history of this company and the behind the scenes tour of the factory where it’s made and bottled is very special. The signature cocktails at the bar are excellent and the hand shaken pina colada is not to be missed!!
