Facundo

Facundo is Bacardi’s ultra-premium rum collection, created to showcase the brand’s heritage, craftsmanship, and access to some of the finest aged rums in the Caribbean. Launched in 2013 and named after Bacardi founder Don Facundo Bacardí Massó, the range offers a rare glimpse into the company’s extensive private reserves, casks of exceptional rum that have been maturing for years in tropical conditions, previously inaccessible to the public.

Don Facundo is credited with revolutionising rum-making in the 19th century by introducing charcoal filtration, high-quality yeast cultivation, and careful blending techniques. The Facundo collection continues this legacy, embodying a philosophy of refinement, elegance, and luxury that elevates rum to the level of the finest whiskies and cognacs.

The range is composed of four distinct expressions, each crafted from blends of rums aged for varying lengths, some for more than two decades. These rums are sourced from Bacardi’s reserves across the Bahamas and other Caribbean locations, aged in American white oak barrels, and bottled without compromise.

The Facundo series stands out not only for its liquid quality but also for its presentation. Each expression is housed in an individually designed decanter-style bottle, reflecting its character, from the crystalline elegance of Neo to the deep amber opulence of Paraiso.

Flavour-wise, the collection moves from the fresh and floral (Neo) to the rich and decadent (Paraiso), offering something for both light rum enthusiasts and lovers of full-bodied, oak-matured spirits. All expressions are crafted for sipping, though Neo and Eximo also excel in high-end cocktails.

Because of their ageing, blending, and tropical maturation, the Facundo rums carry an intensity and integration that rival fine aged whisky, making them a natural choice for spirits connoisseurs seeking variety beyond the traditional whisky or cognac categories.

Our Facundo selection brings together the full range, giving you access to some of the rarest and most refined rums Bacardi has ever released. Whether you are looking to experience the elegance of Neo, the depth of Exquisito, or the indulgence of Paraiso, Facundo offers a taste of Bacardi’s history at its most luxurious — a tribute to the man who redefined rum nearly two centuries ago.
