The legacy of Bacardi Gold Rum traces back to 1862 in Santiago de Cuba, where Don Facundo Bacardí revolutionized rum-making through innovation and passion. His pursuit of a smoother, more refined spirit gave birth to a rum that embodied warmth, sunshine, and celebration. Today, Bacardi Gold carries that same golden glow, a reminder of tropical nights, laughter shared among friends, and the craftsmanship that turned a family name into a global icon.
