Do you know that Colombia produces delicious and internationally awarded rum? And that some of them are not even produced for the local market and are exclusively distilled for other countries?

If you want to learn more about the history and the legend about some Colombian rums this experience is for you.

We will start with a short story about rum, the sugar cane and how this plant ended up in the Americas: Renato will guide you through six Colombian and Cartagena’s rums combining them with different local chocolates. You will also learn a bit more about this delicious fruit called cacao.

At the end you will prepare a rum based cocktail which you can enjoy at the studio or at the stunning terrace of our Caffé Lunático.
All this with the spectacular view of San Felipe’s castle and la Popa.
Available in French, German, Italian, Spanish and English
