Just the most disappointing info on Yelp!They weren't open after we made the trip all the way down from the French Quarters! Google said they are open today.Yelp said they are open today.So did the New Orleans page!And you can't see the board from any side of the two streets that intersect, you'd think you're on a corner that goes no where. But it's hidden in an alley.Because it said 3pm, we stood there for all of 4 mins waiting for it to open. When it didn't, I called to ask and that's when disappointment struck!I told the gentleman that I was here all the way from NYC, I asked if they could do me a favor but sadly, they're closed for the week. This makes me think about their business practices: visibility - they should probably let Yelp know, they should probably let NewOrleans know, and they should probably let Google now!So we hailed a cab and we went back.

What an awesome experience!Looking for things to do while we were in New Orleans, my husband came across this rum tasting. We both love rum, so this was a no brainer for us. Andrew, the co-owner and head distiller, was our host for our tasting. The tasting is intimate and private, so worries about social distancing or being over crowded. We had the opportunity to try 5 different rums; 2 white, 2 dark, and 1 liquor. With every taste Andrew graciously gave us a full background on the particular rum at the time. He continued to answer any and all questions that we had on the process of aging the rum and how each one was different. Please note that you will see the address on S. Broad Street, however, the building is behind the one on the street. You can get to their parking lot once you turn right on Washington and then make an immediate right. After the tasting, you are able to purchase any product that they have. With the tasting, you will receive a $5 discount on the bottle of rum. Please note, they can't ship to your home address, however, they can ship to a retail partner and pick it up there. We loved the experience and would surely return.

Pandemic reviewI saw on an insta post that Roulaison was offering a chocolate rum liqueur and I had to have it!Ordering was easy-peasy online, including options for pay it forward pricing for hand sanitizer that they will donate to a local medical organization. Pick up was also very simple. I was emailed a time and stopped in and picked up at the door. We were both masked and it was seamless.And the liqueur was delish too!

Great cozy distillery with a variety of white and dark rum to sample. Andrew is quite knowledgeable and explained the process of distilling rum to my husband and I. We tried some premium single-barrel rum. All of the rum is quite smooth. Although there's not a fancy showroom, it's a fun pitstop to taste some rum and learn for a few things. Definitely worth checking out! When you get there, check-in and you'll get a freebie sticker.

Showed up randomly and had a wonderful tasting room experience. The owner easily Cid have told me to come back, as there was a formal tasting going on. But he didn't and welcomed me to join on the side. Everything tasty. And super friendly staff. I will definitely be on the lookout for their spirits. If it's a rainy day and your not sure what to do definitely go!

I was lucky enough to go on a private tour on a Saturday afternoon with a few friends. Co-owner Andrew was our guide and he did a fantastic job telling us all about the rum making process and explained everything in an easy-to-understand manner. Roulaison is a small and new rum distilling company and, I'll be honest, I know nothing about liquor production. Everything here is handcrafted and it's all local. All of this was pretty new to me, but I found the tour very interesting and Andrew was extremely nice and was happy to answer questions.After the tour came the tasting and I'm not a liquor drinker, so this got real interesting. I can usually handle liquor if it's mixed with something, so I was thankful for the teeniest little thimble full of samples that we had to try. Some of the rum burned, but that's probably because I "can't hang". By the third taste I had to reach for water- I'm such a lightweight. I did, however, really enjoy the rum liqueur that was offered, mainly because it had some sweetness to it. You can actually have them mix you up a cocktail, if that's your thing.I highly recommend the tour, especially if you like learning about new things and how things are made.

I really liked this place, its not big but the people are friendly. We stumbled upon this place after we left a brewery. We did the tasting and ended up buying a bottle. The rum is good and they offer several variations of it. I would recommend as a stop when you are out and about.

I've been a customer of Roulaison since they opened. I super support local businesses as much and as often as possible, especially when they're providing something extraordinary. Roulaison definitely fits the bill! Local in all possible ways from materials to production to operations they get everything from and do everything right here in Southern Louisiana. Their products are high quality, and of course, delicious. Brings rum to a new level! I'm currently in love with their monthly Juice Box. Each month they offer an opportunity to purchase a box that includes a bottle of their rum along with recipes and ingredients from other local businesses to make delicious cocktails. Love, love, love this! I've made so many tasty, different cocktails and I highly recommend this box as a great deal for everything included. The boxes have to be picked up curbside, but there's a free parking lot as well as sometimes free street parking on Broad next to other great local businesses you should try. While they aren't doing tours due to pandemic restrictions, hopefully they'll be back to their usual tours and other events by next year.

This is a COVID-19 review. I love being able to get local rum from a super cute distillery. You can easily park on the street but they also have a small parking lot that they share with other stores!A while ago I bought a delicious single pot bottle of rum and I am almost out. After perusing their Instagram to see if they would recreate this rum, I saw that they are doing a cocktail subscription kit this summer (FYI this is the summer of covid-19 for those that are reading this in the future when life is back to normal).For less than $50 you get a bottle of rum, some mixers and a recipe to enjoy all month long! Now, can I drink a whole bottle of rum in a month? Probably. At this point in my life (again covid) I'm not going to bars and restaurants (super sad face).Will be back to describe pickup and how delicious the cocktail is!
