Reviewed By TaraW1023 - Nags Head, United States

My husband is a Fuente cigar lover and in my novice search for the perfect Christmas gift, I found the Tampa Sweethearts site! I had some questions on my purchase, so I phoned the customer contact and Arturo Fuente, Jr. answered the phone. Talk about a personal touch! What a wonderful man! So warm, personable and accommodating. He even offered to autograph the cigar box for my husband as well. My husband will be thrilled. Hopefully, in the near future, we will be able to visit the Tampa Sweethearts store in person. Happy Holidays, Arturo and thank you doing what you do! :-)

We provide Tours of our distillery and Tastings after. Come see the first Rum Distillery in Tampa Bay history!

Reviewed By mrdware1 - Naples, United States

Our tour group was small, about 8 people, so we got a lot of face time with the person leading the tour. We were able to ask lots of questions and learn about distilling rum. The best part of the tour was the rum! My wife and I were both surprised just how good it was. We ended up buying a bottle to take home! (We’ve tour other distilleries and enjoyed the visit but didn’t end up buying any spirits to take home.) I wouldn’t consider myself a “rum person” and you don’t have to be either to enjoy a visit.

Best Richardson African Diaspora Literature & Culture Museum

New Covid-19 Hours. Our non-profit African Diaspora Literature and Culture Museum is dedicated to the literary accomplishments of people of the African Diaspora whose ancestors were not permitted to read or write and their Cultural History. We also sell new, used and rare books of the African Diaspora.

Reviewed By CMWEM

Lovely people running the place, they’re both knowledgeable on the subject of African American history and you’d do well to listen to them speak on the topic. The tour was short, sweet and to the point. It was a rundown on the history of many African Americans throughout history and how many people are actually far more African than they think themselves to be. They have a large collection of many African writers and they’re more than happy to give an introduction to anyone who isn’t knowledgeable about African American history.
