Review:
“My ‘Legacy’ cocktail brings together the work of two families - the Bacardí family who came from Catalonia, where Facundo Bacardí was a wine merchant; and my family who come from the region between Montpellier and Marseillan, an area with a strong Latin culture where my family’s vineyards have matured over many years and where Don Facundo Bacardí used to sell wine.
“To bring a touch of innovation in the Latin style, I have customised the DNA of the most famous rum cocktail - sometimes called the ‘Holy Trinity’: rum, lime and sugar. Sugar cane and rum are the Cuban touch of my cocktail; lemon is the specific citrus and wine represents the French vineyard. A green olive and its brine balances the cocktail with its salty touch.”
