Bacardi Knows What Your Dad Wants To Drink
Bacardi has two new premium rums coming out for Father’s day – BACARDÍ Añejo Cuatro and BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez and as usual, we are thirsty! First up is BACARDÍ Añejo Cuatro barrel-aged for a minimum of four years, this rum takes elevated cocktails to another level. It has a beautiful golden apricot hue and boasts notes of mild vanilla, toasted oak, clove and honey. Then, the aging went further with BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez, a rum that’s also barrel-aged, this time for a minimum of 10 years and it’s best enjoyed on the rocks! It has a dark golden hue and boasts bright notes of banana, pear and tropical melon balanced with caramelized vanilla and oak.
