BACARDI SPICED
Bacardi, the world’s most awarded rum, is giving dad a taste of the best with a recent entrant to the Australian market – Bacardi Spiced – made with gold rum mellowed in charred American Oak for a hint of smokiness and blended with natural flavours and spices for a bold, yet smooth taste.
The practice of mixing rum with fruit and spices is almost as old as Caribbean rum itself and so it makes perfect sense for Bacardi to introduce a spiced blend into its ever-growing portfolio. And dad will love that they did so – given the versatility of Bacardi Spiced meaning it can be enjoyed with a classic mixer like cola or ginger ale, even by itself poured over ice, both allowing its distinct flavours to shine through.
It’s also the perfect time to get dad on board, with the increasing global demand for flavoured rums. However, unlike some of its most popular competitors, Bacardi Spiced does not use artificial sweeteners to enhance the rich flavours of its spices making it a delicious and authentic drink that can be enjoyed whatever the occasion.
“We’re confident Bacardi Spiced will satisfy the taste buds of long-time spiced rum drinkers as well as converting some new fans with its unique combination of spices and flavours,” says Sarah Nichols, Marketing Director at Bacardi-Martini Australia.
