The Rum Exchange, Toronto, ON

Gord and I both like rum so were excited to hear that the Rum Exchange (Richmond/Bay) was opening.

We tried a few times to check it out.  The first time we went, it hadn't opened yet.  The second time, it didn't open 'til 10pm. The last time, they had an event happening.  We were determined and finally did tonight.  Yay!

It's nice inside.

They have 80 rums in stock!

The most expensive one is this Brugal at $100 an ounce.

We sat at the bar and chatted with Rumen, the owner.  He's a nice guy and he knows rum!  Here he is making Gord a mojito.

We tried a couple rums we've never heard of before.  Rumen put them in cute glasses and we drank (sipped) them straight, which I don't usually do.

Rumen gave us chocolate to cleanse our palates

If you enjoy rum or want to learn more about it, you definitely want to check out this place!
