"We came here by rental car. Parking is free and it’s closed to town. It’s a small place and if you walking by yourself, it’s free to do so. There is a small bar and store at the end near the exit. It’s good gift to bring home."

"Just did a walk thru on a self guided tour, and then purchased drinks in the bar by the gift shop. Excellent drinks with heavy pours by friendly, helpful people! Plenty of info signs... Very educational on the history of the distillery. Not much information about the actual distillation process... Probably because so many have tried to duplicate their product. Maybe you'd get that in the pay-tour. Tip: the different colors are all the same flavor. The Chocolate and Tamarind flavors are very good. The Blue Curacao tastes a lot sweeter and lighter than what we buy in the States. After looking around the island, this is the cheapest you will find their product. It was $30/750ml and $20/375ml at the gift shop."

"We really enjoyed our tour of the distillery! The drinks were delicious and our guide was very kind and knowledgeable, answering any questions we may have. And it was so nice that it was kid friendly, they even offered mocktails for our daughter to get as her free drink with paid entry. It is definitely worth the visit!"
