The Puerto Rico National Rum Festival, officially known as Taste of Rum, is the quintessential celebration of Puerto Rican rum culture. Established in 2009 by The Rum Lab, this event has grown into a premier gathering that blends tasting, education, and live performance. The 15th anniversary edition arrives in 2025 with a main event on March 29, 2025 at the Puerto Rico Convention Center in San Juan, offering guests access to 40+ Puerto Rican brands and up to ~200 distinct rum expressions for sampling. The festival also features the Rum Conference, delivering seminars and masterclasses in English and Spanish, perfect for enthusiasts and industry professionals alike. Expect vibrant live music—from salsa to rock tributes and batucada—that enhances the tasting experience. In 2025, Taste of Rum even expanded to the mainland U.S. with Taste of Rum on Tour, including a planned Miami stop in November 2025.
