Rum Tropic Distillery at The Velvet Mill presents, Rum Illumination: A Sensory Experience. Join us for this unique experience where lasers, lighting, and special effects accompany a tasting of the rum and vodka products we make here at The Velvet Mill.

What’s Included: The one hour experience features a 17 minute presentation that shows you a history of rum and how we make rum here at The Velvet Mill. The presentation is synchronized to lasers, lighting, holograms and special effects to provide a heightened sensory experience where you will see, hear, and feel the history and the magic of rum making. We will provide a rum or vodka cocktail to each guest to sip while watching the presentation as well as small bite artisan snacks, and a sampling of our rum and vodka products as we talk about each one for a full scent and taste sensory experience. The whole experience takes place in the decorated venue of our tropical tasting area. After the experience ends, feel free to explore the shops and restaurants at The Velvet Mill. More information: You must be 21 years of age or over to participate in the experience. Pets are not allowed (service animals only).
