The French couple have set the place right. The lady speaks English with a French accent and is very patient with the visitors. She takes care in the tasting process and explains all the minute details of rum making. The visitor book is full with interesting remarks. A must visit in Koh Samui. More

I really didn't know what kind of quality to expect (in the rum, the information, the experience), not knowing much about the distillery in advance. We were very pleasantly surprised. It's a small operation run mostly by a husband/wife team. The woman was very... More
