Tortuga: Delicious Rum Cakes!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: Tortuga

    We didn't go to the Tortuga Rum Factory but you can find these delicious rum cakes in just about every convience, pharmacy or local souvenir store around the Islands.

    These rum cakes come in various sizes and flavors. They are so spongy and soft and very flavorful. We bought ours at a convienence store that had a lot of traffic/sales (we wanted to make sure we got fresh cakes and not stale-be careful). They also sell them at the airport which, I'm sure get a lot of traffic so they must be fresh.

    The flavors are all good, but my favorites were defiantely orginal golden, chocolate and banana. They also offer blue mountain coffee, coconut, and key lime. Most stores let you try samples of each flavor to help decide. We bought a ton a various sized cakes to bring back to our family and friends. All enjoyed them!

    I am so hungry thinking about them...I think I will place an order after I finish up this tip!

    What To Buy: Their Rum Fudge is pretty good too, original rum, banana and coconut.

    They also sell Rum flavored coffees and Carribean Sauces!

    Bring a taste of the Islands home!!

    What To Pay: Check their website for pricing, but it was pretty feasible.

    Puro Rey Cigars: Great Selection of Cuban Cigars!
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Name of Shop: Puro Rey Cigars

    This little shop happened to be right across the road from our hotel. We decided to check it out, it was like a 5' x 7' walk-in humidor. They carried all types of cigars; mini Romeos, Romeo y Julieta, Cohibas, Partagas, Montecristos and the list goes on.. Also a decent selection of accessories carrying cases, capsules, humidors and lighters.

    We picked a few up and enjoyed one almost every night. No, we didn't smuggle any back home! :)


    What To Pay: various prices ranging from 7.00 up till 20.00..I'm sure some Limited Editions were higher.
