    This experience was interactive, fun and very informative! I wanted to purchase 5 of the 8 rums I tasted, but am from the states. Instead, I did the mini bottles instead. I am excited about the rum I actually made! I went with a group of friends - 8 of us in total! We are planning to get together towards the end of the summer to "crack" our bottles and taste each other's creations!

    Before arriving in Antigua I was looking for something unique to do on my husband’s birthday. I found the academy of rum and since we both enjoy rum thought it would be a fun time. We were not disappointed! We learned how to make rum and the process involved. After tasting 5 different rums, we began making our own with input from Henry, AJ and a lovely young lady whose name escapes me after rum on an empty stomach. Lol. It was such a fun, unique time. We would highly recommend attending a class. You will definitely not be disappointed. If we find ourselves in Antigua again, we’ll definitely be stopping by to say hi. (And buy another bottle or 2 of their delicious spiced rum)

    Only learned about this the day before attending and hoped it was going to be as good as the reviews made out. I'm very pleased to say that it certainly was! The hosts Henry and AJ were great, along with the lady whose name escapes me. They told us a little bit about rum making, and how the rums that they make differ from that of the mass-market ones. To start it was trying 5 shots of rum that they made to see which one we preferred. Whilst doing this the clear rum was being distilled right in front of us with it dripping into a beaker ready for us later. We then got into tasting all the different flavours of rum that could be used. Bear in mind these are 40% in themselves so certainly its a very boozy experience! It was good fun trying out all the different flavours and making them come together for your final choice. I did start out all technical, 10ml of this, 5ml of that etc, but that quickly went by the wayside! The class was all very well explained and ended up with a bottle of rum, created by myself and with a label on marking all the ingredients inside it. Overall a great, and unique experience and certainly one I would recommend. I had arrived to English Harbour by bus. After doing a hike, I took the water taxi across. Due to having to be back on the cruise ship for a certain time, time was a bit short. I enquired with the guys who told me that Goodwin could drive me back across to Nelsons Dockyard to await the bus. However after a short while when the bus wasn't coming, he drove me over a 1/3 of the way back to another bus stop where I could catch either the 15 or 17. He certainly didn't need to do this and wouldn't accept any money. Many thanks Goodwin!

    This class was awesome. The hosts were very knowledgeable and funny. We learned so much about the history of rum and how to make the rum. Then we each got to make our own bottle using whatever flavors we chose. There was also a tasting before we made our own, of each of the flavors that they make there and of the base rum that comes out of the stills. This helped us decided what flavors we liked so we could chose the right things for our own bottle. At the end, you label your rum and then seal it with wax and take it home. I would definitely recommend this activity! We had a great time.
