Heritage and Legacy
- Founded in 1862 by Don Facundo Bacardí Massó in Santiago de Cuba, Bacardi boasts over 150 years of rum-making expertise.
- Don Facundo's pioneering methods, like charcoal filtration and aging in oak barrels, revolutionized rum production, making it smoother and more palatable.
- This heritage of innovation and quality has cemented Bacardi's reputation as a leader in the rum industry.
Production Process
- Bacardi rums are made from high-quality molasses sourced from around the world.
- They're then fermented with a proprietary yeast strain developed by Don Facundo himself, contributing to the rum's distinct character.
- All Bacardi rums are aged in oak barrels, with the specific type and duration varying depending on the expression. This aging process imparts richness, depth, and subtle flavors to the rum.
- The final step involves charcoal filtration, a Bacardi signature technique that removes impurities and creates the brand's characteristic clean and smooth taste.
Versatility and Mixability
- Bacardi offers a wide range of rums, from light and crisp to dark and aged, catering to diverse palates and cocktail preferences.
- Their light rums, like Bacardi Superior and Carta Blanca, are perfect for classic cocktails like Mojitos, Daiquiris, and Cuba Libres.
- Their darker rums, like Bacardi Añejo and Cuatro, add depth and complexity to cocktails like Old Fashioneds and Manhattans.
- Bacardi's rums also work well in punches, tiki drinks, and even culinary applications.
Smoothness and Taste
- Bacardi's charcoal filtration process effectively removes harsh notes and impurities, resulting in a smooth and easy-to-drink rum.
- The specific aging and blending techniques used for each expression create a range of flavors, from light and fruity to rich and caramelized.
- This balance of smoothness and flavor profile makes Bacardi rums enjoyable neat, on the rocks, or mixed in your favorite cocktails.
