01

Rum & spirits
The short list, verified.
Rum is St. Croix's oldest industry and the island still makes it at scale — Cruzan's family-lineage distillery on the west end, the Diageo plant that fills every bottle of Captain Morgan, and a newer distillery turning breadfruit into award-winning vodka. All three pour for visitors on weekdays; none run weekend tours, so plan a mid-week outing.
02
Captain Morgan Visitor Center
Mid-island, off Melvin Evans Hwy
The visitor center at the Diageo distillery that produces Captain Morgan — open Monday–Friday 10–4, with booked tastings at 1 pm and a gift shop.
03
Sion Farm Distillery
Sion Farm, mid-island
Chef Todd Manley's distillery making Mutiny Island Vodka — the world's first vodka distilled from breadfruit, and a spirits-competition gold medalist. Free tours Mon–Fri 11–5 with a tasting-room bar.
04
Leatherback Brewing Company
Kingshill
Not rum, but the island's craft brewery belongs on any drinks itinerary — rainwater-brewed beers in a daily tasting room.
