The greatest food in the world and the greatest rum in the world, all one one island for one week. 

That’s the case each November when the Caribbean Rum Awards and the St Barth Gourmet Festival come together for a week of sheer gastronomic bliss. 

The Caribbean Rum Awards is the ultimate rum experience in the Caribbean, a week-long gala of outdoor parties, master classes and a collection of the greatest rums from across the region, all centered around the world’s leading rum bar, the Rhum Room in Gustavia.
