I believe it's the best deals we've seen in town. A great place to get your rhum before you leave and also sells products like coffee (best price seen too). More

We got to taste a few different rums before buying and were happy with the service. The staff was so friendly. Stay for a drink in the bar! More

The best thing about this place is that it is 2 doors down from Calle 62. I guess if you happen to be there it is worth checking out but I wouldn't go out of my to vist this place. The selection of rums was underwhelming to say the least. For my time and money I enjoyed the airport duty... More

I went to Casa del Ron hoping to find a great selection of Cuban rums. What a disappointment. I would estimate the selection to be basically comprised of Havana Club rum, period.

They were very nice there, and have taste testing. But after buying a few bottles I discovered the duty free at the airport is cheaper by a couple pesos. More

We went here for a look, and it was just ok. I wouldn't call it a Must See by no means. The Grocery store in Plaza Americas has pretty much the same rums, minus the sampling. Was just pretty much a Mini LCBO. More
