History:

Austrian Bacardí Legacy 2015 winning cocktail by Kenny Klein at Maniac Bar Artists of International Cocktail Catering in Bad Ischl.

All my ingredients were selected for their flavour profile; I then used only the essence of each combined with liquid nitrogen, balancing each with the flavour profile of Bacardí Carta Oro. Each ingredient is easily sourced around the world and has a connection with the history of Bacardí rum. My cocktail can only be prepared with Bacardí Carta Oro because it provided the profile that I used to select the ingredients.

"A 'golden moment' is a unique moment in life when you recognise that you have discovered something really special - like when I first tried my highly aromatic and balanced drink.
