Discover the world's oldest rum distillery
For over 300 years, Mount Gay has been crafting deeply rich and aromatic rums in Barbados, the birthplace of rum. Visit the original landscape and buildings where it all began, back in 1703.
Tour the historic Mount Gay distillery in St. Lucy to experience the fully-operational rum making headquarters. Explore the still house, with the recommissioned Coffey still, one of the three remaining, copper stills in the world.
Visit the well which has provided Mount Gay with coral filtered water for over 300 years and the molasses house where notes of liquorice waft through the air. Step into the bonds where the rums age in their casks.
The Mount Gay Distillery Tour Experience takes place every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. There are also a variety of premium rum flight and cocktail experiences available. Find more information about visiting times and booking on their website.
