The different BACARDÍ varieties (at Sausalitos)

About the company BACARDÍ
In 1862, founder Don Facundo Bacardí Massó revolutionized the spirits industry by creating a light rum with an exceptionally smooth taste in Santiago de Cuba: BACARDÍ. More and more cocktail pioneers, bartenders, and professionals were inspired by this delicious rum and conjured up the world's most famous recipes, such as the BACARDÍ Mojito, BACARDÍ Daiquiri, BACARDÍ Cuba Libre, and many more. It's no wonder that BACARDÍ Rum is the most awarded spirit in the world (over 550 awards!), and to this day stands for quality, taste, and innovation. Did you know? – To this day, BACARDÍ Rum is primarily produced in Peruvian Rico and Mexico according to Don Facundo Bacardí Massó's original recipe. Its original taste is therefore assured and remains unchanged to this day – since 1862. The BACARDÍ brand is, incidentally, part of the Bacardi Limited portfolio, headquartered in Hamilton, Bermuda.
