LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

“

The quintessential mixing rum. It defined the light rum category and remains the standard for refreshingly clean, Caribbean-style cocktails.

The Library Note

In 1862, Don Facundo Bacardí Massó revolutionized the rum world in Santiago de Cuba by creating the first smooth, light-bodied clear spirit. The iconic bat on the label was chosen because bats were considered a symbol of good luck in Cuba.

Sommelier's Perspective

THE NOSE

Light floral and fruity notes with hints of vanilla and almond.

THE PALATE

Clean and dry with soft notes of vanilla, apricot, and a touch of almond.

THE FINISH

Crisp and quick with a faint sweetness.
