Rum Bar of the Year: Rhum Room St Barth The Rhum Room had only been open for a few months last year when it took the crown as our global rum bar of the year. Now things are getting even more interesting — and it’s done it again. What had already been the Caribbean’s largest commercial collection of rum and rhum agricole has increased with more than 600 rums on offer and the largest rhum agricole selection of any bar in the Western Hemisphere (and perhaps the world). Rum expert Christopher Davis has cultivated an enviable portfolio of superb rums — and, happily, most served at prices that encourage exploration. Add that to regular rum master classes and an on-site humidor and cigar lounge and you have the gold standard for rum bars anywhere.
