The Dutch Caribbean’s Biggest Rum Festival Set to Begin.

bonairerumfestival05062023BONAIRE:--- The biggest rum festival in the Dutch Caribbean is set to begin next week with the second edition of Bonaire Rum Week.

The weeklong celebration of premium rum is an action-packed slate of oceanfront events across the island, from rum tastings to culinary experiences to an undersea “rum hunt.”

This year’s event runs from June 12-17, culminating with a rum-infused Taste of Bonaire festival on June 17.

That includes a final dinner at the number one-ranked restaurant in the Caribbean, the Brass Boer, the Caribbean outpost of the three-Michelin-star Die Librije in The Netherlands.

“We can’t wait for another edition of Bonaire Rum Week, a revolutionary event that takes rum festivals outside of musty expo halls and right to the water’s edge, where Caribbean rum is meant to be enjoyed,” said Alexander Britell, co-founder of Bonaire Rum Week, which Caribbean Journal organizes in collaboration with Tourism Corporation Bonaire.

The event kicks off with a grand opening party at the iconic Rum Runners bar, with events at top hotels around the island, including a Rum on the Beach party at Plaza Beach Resort, a sunset happy hour at the Divi Flamingo Resort; a cocktail party at the Buddy Dive resort and a rum-pairing lunch at the Harbour Village Beach Club.

Thursday, June 16 is Buddy Dive’s Rum Hunt, which will see divers look for hidden stones underwater that correspond with bottles of rum on land.

Many of the world’s top rums will be on hand, including Diplomatico, Papa’s Pilar; El Dorado; Island Company; Angostura; Ron San Pablo; Clifton Estate; Rom Rincon; Ron Barcelo; Havana Club; Siesta Key; Ron Caney; Ron Varadero and more.
