Facundo Bacardi Neo Rum 750ml
| Description: | Named for the originator of world's largest rum brand, Don Facundo Bacardi Masso, the Facundo Rum Collection was born of last year's celebration of the 150th anniversary of the family-owned company. Facundo L. Bacardi, the current chairman, as well as the great-great grandson and namesake of the founder, took a hands-on role, and says, "We got together [at the celebration] and reflected that it was time to release some rums that family members have been enjoying for years." An alternate motive behind this sharing was to raise the image of what rum can be, he adds. "We have the rums that can compete with any Cognac and Scotch." - Jack Bettridge. The collection achieves its goal. While all are of exceptional age, the entry level, Neo, is almost clear, with a hint of gold. The rum is a tribute to the flagship Bacardi Superior. However, Neo includes age components unheard of in white rum (eight years at the extreme) with three to five years occupying the heart. A double filtering explains the color. While decidedly smooth, it sings of vanilla, rich herbs and marzipan. |
