Regram @bars_inc St Nicholas Abbey Based in a 350-year-old plantation, St Nicholas Abbey is one of the most tranquil and beautiful places in all of Barbados; the fact that it also houses a rum distillery is an added bonus. Owned and managed for centuries by absent English landlords, today St. Nicholas Abbey is owned by the Warren Family of Barbados, who have managed to make it self-sustaining through public tours and the sale of rum distilled on the plantation. The tour includes the main house – a Jacobean mansion from 1660 – as well as a rum and sugar museum, steam mill and distillery. The rum itself is aged for either ten or fifteen years, made to a traditional, authentic recipe with organic sugarcane and distilled in small batches. It’s one of the finest rums on the island, and to see it being created is a rare treat. #BARSinc #BajanAssociationofRumShops #StrictlyNajanRumShopTours #StNicholasAbbey #Barbados #Rum #Culture #Heritage #Traditions #Bajan #246
