We
cruised
into
Grand
Cayman
for
the
first
time.
After
taking
a
taxi
tour
of
the
island,
a
part
of
our
group
wanted
to
stop
and
try
some
rum
at
the
Cayman
Distillery.
We
did
not
have
reservations
and
did
not
have
time
to
wait
for
a
tour
as
the
ship
left
relatively
early.
But
for
a
very
small
fee,
Athena
took
us
on
a
tasting
tour
of
the
rums
and
spirits
that
Cayman
Spirits
produces.
Every
one
of
the
samples
was
different
and
served
in
an
order
that
allowed
us
to
taste
the
flavor
without
merging
the
nuances.
Athena
was
amazing.
She
was
friendly,
conversational,
and
funny.
She
made
the
delicious
sampling
even
better
with
her
candor
and
personality.
We
purchased
the
"build
your
own
sampler"
4
pint
box
with
Coconut
Rum,
Banana
Rum,
and
2
of
the
Dark
Rum.
The
Blackberry
liqueur
was
a
favorite,
but
it
did
not
come
in
a
pint.
We
decided
to
walk
the
path
from
the
distillery
to
the
cruise
tender.
It
is
about
a
mile,
but
it
was
an
easy
trip.
While
some
have
said
in
reviews
that
the
area
is
"sketchy",
we
found
that
it
was
simply
industrial.
My
wife
and
I
are
already
planning
our
trip
back
to
Grand
Cayman
and
will
visit
again.
