RAISING YOUR BAR

What’s behind every bottle of BACARDÍ aged rum, such as this special, rare bottling of BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez.

1. BACARDÍ is a family company with more than 150 years of Maestros de Ron (rum masters) expertise.

2. This is a master blender’s reserve rum, perfect for sipping neat or on the rocks as you would any premium barrel-aged spirit.

3. BACARDÍ was founded in Cuba and is now made in Puerto Rico.

4. The dark golden hue comes from undisturbed oak aging, which also creates bright notes of banana, pear and tropical melon balanced by caramelized vanilla and oak flavours.

5. Gran Reserva is the term BACARDÍ uses to denote a mature rum, long aged under the Caribbean sun.

6. BACARDÍ validates that no rum younger than 10 years old is in this bottle; in fact, the blend likely includes 11 and 12-yearold rums to achieve the desired, complex flavour profile.
