This place looked like it hadn't changed for the last 280 years - the date stamped on the huge water mill machinery. They apparently produce 700 bottles of rum a day but it was hard to imagine how with no automation and a healthy Caribbean attitude. We got to taste a batch of rum that they had forgotten to dilute at the last stage - 85% proof and tasted like rocket fuel - Mac bought some!
