Bacardi Rum Factory
One of the most favorite ship tours in the
opportunity to enjoy rum at the Casa Bacardi in new San Juan, Puerto
Rico, that has been said it flows freely in their open-air patio,
with excellent tour guides providing an interesting history and
stories about the early days of the Bacardi family and their
outstanding rum making in this nation. This excellent tour gives you
a short video, and chances to compare the smell and color of
different kinds of rum, from light to dark, along with flavored
types and ends with a mojito making demonstration that also offers
great tastings. The tour comes with two drinks, and after you pick
up your drink tickets, you have various choices to make, enjoy the
tour first, go to the gift shop or sit in the hospitality area where
you will served your drinks. You won't be able to take pictures once
the tour starts, but you can inside the lobby or anywhere outside.
You'll will learn that Bacardi has a bat on its label because it is
a symbol of good luck, and a short film that tells about the history
of Bacardi, that had actually started in Cuba, but would eventually
leave because of political reasons and set up the factory here so
that it could avoid the taxes on rum shipped to the US. It wasn't a
tour into the actual factory, but gave enough information to make it
worthwhile. One of the better moments of the tour is when you head
into the salon where a bartender will show and tell you how to make
the best drinks with their rum.
