General information about Bacardi rum
The Bacardi distillery was founded by Facundo Bacardí i Massó in Santiago de Cuba in 1862. Since its foundation, the distillery has been producing rum with a smooth and light-hearted taste. The sophisticated recipes, which differ from variety to variety, contribute to the smooth and carefree taste of Bacardi.
The Bacardi Carta Blanca, which is surprisingly mild compared to other white rums, is distilled no less than four times to achieve a high level of purity. Carta Blanca is also filtered five times over charcoal before maturing for a year in a barrel. The white rum is therefore a symbol of the elaborate production process behind most types of Bacardi rum.
In the production of Bacardi, sugar cane forms the basis of the rum, as is obligatory for rum production. To be precise, Bacardi, like most internationally renowned rum producers, does not make its rum directly from sugar cane juice, but from molasses. Molasses is a by-product from the processing of sugar cane into sugar.
