A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
Coffee, cocktails and a little rum-making
A waterside bar, rum store and blending house on Island Street, with guided tastings and hands-on experiences to book.
Devon Rum Co. brings several kinds of outing together on Island Street. You can keep it simple with coffee or a cocktail in the waterside bar, browse the rum store, or book time behind the scenes at the blending house. A guided tasting introduces the rums and how they are made; the more hands-on rum-making session puts a miniature copper still in front of you and ends with a bottle of your own creation. For a group celebration, the private cocktail masterclass is another option. The bar also hosts music, so it is worth checking the events listing before choosing an evening. This is a useful place to have on the list for an autumn Salcombe visit: the venue specifically advertises experiences through autumn and winter, as well as its everyday bar programme.
