History[edit | edit source]

Bacardi Superior was first introduced in 1862 by Don Facundo Bacardi Massó in Santiago de Cuba, Cuba. Don Facundo, a Spanish immigrant, revolutionized the rum-making process by implementing innovative techniques such as charcoal filtration and aging in oak barrels. These methods helped create a smoother and more refined rum, setting Bacardi Superior apart from other rums of the time.

Production[edit | edit source]

Bacardi Superior is made from molasses, water, and yeast. The molasses, a byproduct of sugarcane processing, is fermented with yeast to convert the sugars into alcohol. The resulting liquid is then distilled multiple times to remove impurities and create a high-quality spirit. After distillation, the rum is aged in oak barrels to develop its unique flavor profile.
