Distillery Info
In 1862, The Bacardí family, led by Don Facundo The Bacardí Masso, bought a distillery in Santiago de Cuba. They threw away the rule book and made their own unique blends with a revolutionary rum-making process that would change the way rum was made forever.
Emilio Bacardí Moreau had two great loves. His rum and his country. He risked his life to fight for Cuba in its struggle for independence from Spain. In spite of arrests, imprisonment and exile he never gave up. His courage was rewarded on his return when he became the first freely-elected Mayor of Santiago de Cuba.
Now recognised world wide for its Rum, each bottle of Bacardi has a bat on the label with bats considered lucky in Cuba. When Doña Amalia Bacardí spotted fruit bats in the distillery, she insisted that a bat should appear on every bottle.
Bacardi Oakheart Spiced Rum is aged in charred oak barrels to impart a rich and smoky taste to Bacardi's famous recipe, the Oakheart is decadently smooth on the palate with an exciting spice kick.
