An evening in The Arsenal: The Rum Box is as memorable for the smiling staff as the taste sensations on the table.

There’s no more welcoming way to slide into a Caribbean groove. 

Feel the Warmth

As comforting as a sip of Ron Parce, the world’s finest finest rum, Cartagena’s #1 gastro-bar — The Arsenal: The Rum Box — was created in 2017 by Abraham Dau, to shake up the city’s hospitality industry and showcase Colombia's spectacular rum culture.

Tucked away in hip and happening Getsemaní, Colombia’s coolest neighborhood, this friendly drinking den has two nearby venues working in tandem to create superior culinary experiences and exceptional cocktails. 

Free hugs on Arrival

Even in times of social distancing, everyone gets a trademark (metaphoric) free hug on arrival and throughout the evening with a series of sensory treats to make them feel at home. Feel the Caribbean warmth of the Rum Box family, sip on chilled cocktails and sate yourself with some of Cartagena’s finest culinary creations.

Dau and his talented team set up shop to surpass expectations with their selection of signature cocktails and a tasty menu that’s built on Colombia’s most typical dishes. Everything is laced with expert touches that tantalize the taste buds and delivers a superior gourmet experience.
