History

Thai Bacardí Legacy 2013 winning cocktail created by Suwincha Singsuwan at The St. Regis Bar in Bangkok, Thailand.

The first time I drank Bacardí Black I imagined I was sitting in the library on a giant mahogany couch, reading and sipping the drink. I wanted to create a glamorous luxury drink that, I believe, takes rum to the next level.

I love a good Murakami tribute, but coffee isn't my thing

My first recreation of a Bacardi Legacy Cocktail. Used Camus VS High Intensity Cognac, Havana Club 3 and a dark rum. Fairly coffee forward and bitter, very bitter. Not bad, but nothing spectacular. I would try with syrup next time, and a light pinch of salt.
