Overview

Discover the process of rum making. Learn how to make your own rum arrange and taste the different rums!

La Rhumerie du Domaine de Saint Aubin distinguishes itself as the one where Mauritius' very first agricultural rum was created, wholly from pure sugar cane juice. While respecting tradition and the human dimension, the group has been able to innovate with the aim of protecting the environment. The new traditional distillery has the capacity to produce a high quality, delicate and light rum, perfect for making fruit-based cocktails and liqueurs. Its authentic rums are appreciated by connoisseurs and amateurs alike.

La Rhumerie de Saint Aubin, located in the South of the Island, is the pioneer in the manufacture of agricultural rum. Always in the enthusiasm of providing quality rums to its guests, La Rhumerie de Saint Aubin has taken up the challenge of innovating and has managed to combine a traditional approach to produce authentic agricultural rums. To soothe the curiosity of its guests, a unique experience is available, namely ‘L'Atelier du Rhum’. Guests can discover traditional techniques and all the process of rum making. Prepare the “rhum arrangé” of your choice with seasonal fruits and seal the bottle to bring back home the souvenir of a unique experience. After the rum workshop, enjoy a delicious dish at Le Saint Aubin restaurant, an old colonial house dating from 1819.

Your day does not end here! After your lunch, relish a visit to the Mini Ferme du Domaine de Saint Aubin, La Maison de La Vanille where the aromatic Vanilla is produced, La Serre d’Anthurium du Domaine de Saint Aubin, Le Jardin Botanique du Domaine de Saint Aubin, Le Moulin du Domaine de Saint Aubin and La Boutique du Domaine de Saint Aubin to bring back souvenir.

I visited this domaine in order to see the vanilla growing process plus other plants growing incl the rum story And rum testing ; the entrance ticket in the Domaine shop cost 650 mru/ person ; it was supposed to be min 1 hour experience ! It was not clearly explained where we should go and meet with my wife our English/ or German speaking guide . Finally we found the next shop like room where we could see on our own the vanilla film . Then a young lady pretended to tell some thing about vanilla process but it was hardly understanble and very short , then we were told to go on our own through their plants field to the restaurant nearby ( what for ???) , we went there , got inside got outside and even found the nearby rum room ! And thiseas all maybe taking all 20 minutes , without anybody later on taken care of us ; so we just went away having paid for this experience 1300 MRU , not knowing more then we knew before , Nothing planned , no information given pure chaos ! Avoid this place as far as possible , maybe they have potential , maybe they are great producer , but organizationally they should learn starting at the basics Pawel and Margarete from Poland

Such a fun day. Lots to see and do on the estate, starting with a look at sugar growing, then on to a small animal area, with the happiest looking tortoises we saw on our mega trip around the Indian Ocean and Africa. After that there was a really interesting sector devoted to vanilla production, then anthuriums and on to spice growing. Finally...rum production with our fantastic guide, Christabelle (? Apologies if I've remembered that wrong). We tasted most of the rums they make on site, before having the opportunity to build our own rum blend with fresh fruits and spices, which was bottled and sealed up for us to take home. It's still maturing so no idea what it's going to be like, though it will bring back excellent memories of a really happy day out. Oh, and lunch at the onsite restaurant was delicious too - with rum punch included 🍹
