Oxbow Rum Distillery

Incredible tour! The team is really upbeat and it’s clear they are passionate about their product. The cocktails were tasty and the tasting guidance really helped highlight what made each rum unique. Highly recommended!!

What a beautiful gem in Baton Rouge! Creative cocktails, some frozen and some on the rocks, made with care and fresh ingredients! I’d recommend the tiger smash (on the rocks or frozen) and their hurricane (again in the rocks or frozen). Their rum is made from freshly and locally sourced sugar cane. You can take give facility tours along with a history lesson. The tap room is beautifully decorated and comfortable. They also rent the space for private parties!

My husband and I had a great time here! We stopped in on our way to see the Tigers play 💜💛! We tried a rum flight and Caleb was awesome and very knowledgeable. He is also very creative with the frozen cocktails. Thank you for the recipes!! Loved the decor! We would definitely recommend you stop by if you're in the area. It was definitely a good time 😁

Stopped on on a Thursday afternoon. Enjoyed a full flight poured by Tico and a tour by John. Very personable. Wonderful service. The rum was really good. They really connected the sugar mill with the distillery. Would definitely recommend.

Caleb was extraordinary, our tour was informative and personal. I can’t wait to come back with the rest of my family!

We visited Oxbow Rum Distillery recently and had a great tour by Jimmy. He was such a fun tour guide with lots of tidbits of information and interesting facts. He also gave us our rum tasting afterward. Jimmy knows his rum and is quite the character! It was a very open and unique atmosphere - inside and out.

awesome place, great drinks even if you don’t like rum! service is amazing and so friendly. i am not a rum drinks but they have rum aged in whiskey barrels so if you are a whisky drinker, it is awesome, same thing for tequila! must check it out, super clean also!

Cole and Bree were excellent tour guides/hosts. We did the tour and then rum tasting afterwards, highly recommended.

This is thee spot! This spot is so reasonable and just really good. Upon arriving here I really did not know what to expect. There's a Muriel where you can take pics at and it's really done well. Very Louisiana -ish I must say! Walking in it looks like a regular bar with rhe option of outside seating. This.spot you can also do Rum Walking Tours that you can book ahead of time to secure your spot and date. The cocktails are reasonably priced. The bartender was very knowledgeable of the rum options and even though I got a flight it felt like I was being schooled on the rums and collabs in flavors that went into the distilling process. Very very good! Overall great spot!

Such a unique experience - touring Oxbow Rum Distillery in downtown Baton Rouge paired with a tasting of the rum flight.

This is a great stop if you want just unwind. The patio is phenomenal. There is no beer nor food. But if you like rum and rum mixed drinks this is your spot. They have a few games in the patio if your a busy type. Certainly not a college kid location. Closes pretty early 8 pm. Great place for a first date or venting session.

While driving across Louisiana, we made a stop in Baton Rouge to visit another rum distillery. The exterior was ideal for a photo, and we lucked out on timing, narrowly missing an impromptu parade. Our server, Caleb, was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing the distillery's history and the reasons behind its name changes (more details in my Yelp review). We sampled several rums, starting with the Rhum Louisiane Cane Juice Agricole, a delicious white rum. Next was the Barrel-Aged Straight Rum at 95 proof, with subtle notes of plum and chocolate--a smooth and enjoyable pour. The Single Barrel Rhum, also 95 proof, had hints of vanilla, providing a wonderfully smooth experience. The spiced rums each had unique characteristics. The False River Spice Rum, my favorite, had a blend of botanicals with hints of citrus, vanilla, and cinnamon. It had a touch of sweetness and was a great one to save for last. The final tasting was the Barrel-Aged Spice Rum, aged in bourbon barrels, which offered a smoky flavor profile. Each rum was exceptional--these were the best rums I'd tried all day. If I hadn't been flying, I would've taken home a case! Fortunately, I'll look into shipping to PA. We ended up purchasing a bottle of the False River Spice and, without a doubt, this was my favorite stop of the trip so far. Highly recommend!

There was a misunderstanding with a booking and Caleb made a special arrangement for our party to have a tour and tasting. Caleb's knowledge and service far exceeded any experience I have had at any establishment. The rum itself was also excellent as well as the frozen drinks. I would highly recommend the Canekiller.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Oxbow and highly recommend a stop in to taste the delicious rums being distilled there. Jimmy was a wonderful bartender and host, very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the different spirits. When we arrived, we were greeted with genuine smiles and welcomes and were immediately impressed with the decor and natural vibe. We definitely felt comfortable and welcome. We opted for the full tasting and were impressed with the unique flavors of each pour. Although we didn't get to participate in a tour we were able to glimpse the impressive copper still! After our tasting we each enjoyed a specialty cocktail that was mixed perfectly and presented beautifully.

Strange day. Walked in at 5 pm on a Sunday afternoon. They close at 6. No one in sight. Meandered around for about 10 minutes with another couple of perplexed customers. Turns out the single employee was giving a tour. He came out. He let us jump in on the last part of the tour. We jumped in on the tasting for $10. Tried 4 rums, the unaged came juice (a bit grassy/vegetal for me), the white rum (alcoholic burn), the barrel aged (ok), and the spiced rum (decent) From there I sat at the bar for like 2 minutes while the Ryan flirted with a cute lady that was convinced knew him from New Iberia. After being invisible, I paid for the tasting, at which point he asked if I wanted a cocktail. No solo dudes allowed, perhaps? I'm not from the area, so wouldn't be returning anyway. None of the rum was good enough for me to buy a bottle of.

Awesome little spot with a lot more going on than I thought. I figured it was just a distillery but was surprised at the bar and amount of food offered. Will definitely be back when I'm more prepared for the experience. Go try it for yourself!

My husband and I visited Oxbow on Sunday for a tour and tasting and had the most amazing experience! It's definitely a hidden gem in the city. There is so much history and artistry in the design of the facility and the customer service was outstanding! The rum is pure perfection! I highly recommend Oxbow. I can't wait to go back!!

This place is amazing!!! I've been to almost all the Caribbean rum distilleries and ox bow beats them all!!!! Coy and Kala were amazing!!!!! Kala's ginger liqueur and pear liqueur were amazing!!!! Can't believe this place wasn't packed super nice atmosphere. can't wait to go back. Great event for a wedding or corporate event. A true hidden gem

Highly suggest doing the tour! Great historic tour and tour guide! It is a must to try the cane killer and the cojito!!

Cool tap room/patio with option to tour the distillery. If you like to support locally-run family businesses, this is the place. Great vibe, family friendly. Unique, rotating cocktail menu and the rum louisiane is great. Staff went above and beyond accommodating my husband, who was not drinking, on the tour.

OMG! Ya gotta go on a tour. Its the coolest thing to see and know how the Rum is made! Get the Old Fashioned and you'll never want it any other way. Go on the weekend and be sure Ryan gives the tour.
