Welcome to the Virginia Rum Club
If you found us, hopefully that means you are interested in the rum spirit or maybe it was by accident. We are a group of enthusiasts that enjoy rum as a spirit neat or mixed in cocktails. There are rums for everyone — come join us in person or online via zoom to talk, share and taste rum. We have members that are as diverse as the spirit itself.
From the novice to the well seasoned connoisseur, we all share what we like and don’t like about rum. All are welcome that are interested in sharing and learning about rum, the most dynamic and complex spirit on earth.
Our June event:
Northern Virginia Happy Hour
The Virginia Rum Club is holding our first event outside of Richmond when we meet for Happy Hour cocktails at Vola’s Dockside Grill Hi-Tide Tiki Pop-Up Bar in Old Town Alexandria.
We will meet for drinks at 6:00 and head to a nearby restaurant for dinner. This event is open to everyone. RSVP to varumclub@gmail.com to let us know if you’re planning to join us!
