Rum where the story is told
About Mount Gay Visitor Centre
Mount Gay has two homes for visitors: its historic distillery in St. Lucy and this visitor centre at Brandons, on the Spring Garden Highway near Bridgetown. Here you learn the story of the rum and taste it, on the Signature Tasting Tour, a cocktail workshop or a lunch and rum tasting. Children are allowed only on the Signature Tasting Tour and the lunch experience. Book on the Mount Gay site; tell your taxi driver it is the visitor centre in St. Michael, not the distillery.
