History

Created in 2018 for Bacardi Legacy by Will Isaza at Blossom Bar, Boston, USA.

Review

Will’s inspiration: “Gloria cocktail is the culmination of career experiences influenced by personal flavours. It stems from the culinary inspiration of a ‘Bocadillo:’ a Colombian small bite usually comprising something sweet and savoury cheese. The name Gloria is the direct translation of ‘glory’ and is also the name of my mother.

I was inspired to create a legacy that uses family, tradition, glory and BACARDÍ Añejo Cuatro rum. Using those four pillars of success, I hope to create much more than just a cocktail - better yet, a movement!”
