Welcome to the Virginia Rum Club

Two refreshing daiquiris

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.
