The class frames its techniques against a longer history: rum’s roots in Caribbean sugar estates, its role in American coastal trade, and the recent craft revival that brought small-batch moonshines and flavored rums back into bars. Geologically, you’re still in Florida’s flat limestone plain—no alpine views here—but close enough to the coast that citrus and spice feel native to the menu and the humidity nudges scents into the room.
Culturally this is Florida tourism refined: accessible hands-on learning with local flavor and theatrical pour-and-flare moments. Expect clear instruction on measuring, layering, and balancing sugar, acid, and spirit; expect tasting notes on molasses, esters, and oak influence.
Practical guide: arrive 10 minutes early with a valid ID, and plan to stand and work at a bar station. Bring a small notebook if you want recipes; wear comfortable shoes—classes move quickly. Hydrate before you taste and pace yourself: the tasting flight includes six rums. The space is wheelchair accessible, but the class is 21+.
By the end you’ll leave with two crafted drinks in hand, a short tasting vocabulary, and techniques you can replicate at home—an hour that converts curiosity into confident pours.
