We have not been there in a few years but the last time we were there was a small multi-colored store off the main road to Cul de sac. That was the factory/distillery store where you could sample and buy their rum. There was also a small building behind it where the rum was produced. It is worth a visit if you want to sample and buy rum. Won't be a Bacardi or Havana Club rum factory tour if that's what you're looking for.

The rum they use is not distilled or made there. They simply buy the rum somewhere and infuse it with different flavors. The also sell spices and other non food novelties.

YES!!! Easy to miss!! I remember (some time ago) that you need the security code to get in the gate. Yes, worth the 'hunting" to find and fun photo ops. Great lil place to visit. The gal's (sisters?) are lovely and the "wear's" are hand crafted. THAT you don't see anymore. Also, stock up at there place of business. The new liquor store in the airport JACKED up the price on there products!! More than double from anywhere on the island or from the factory/house. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />
Sand Gravity, got to love it!

There is a Ma Dou Dou shop in Philipsburg on the boardwalk that is very well stocked. They have all the flavors that the little factory shop has and lots of spices, glasses etc... The prices are the same, but very convenient if you happen to be shopping in Philipsburg and want to make a few purchases there.
