\u201cThe great summer getaway is almost here in so many key rum-drinking markets around the world, so the launch of the new BACARD\u00cd CARIBBEAN SPICED, our first premium variant in the fast-growing spiced rum sub-category, is a welcome arrival,\u201d<\/em> said Bacardi Travel Retail Marketing Director Darragh Ryan. \u201cIt will make the perfect choice for discerning holidaymakers wanting to raise their tropical cocktail-making game.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cFrom a business perspective, BACARD\u00cd CARIBBEAN SPICED is an elevated progression from BACARD\u00cd Spiced, our existing spiced offering,\u201d<\/em> he added. \u201cBacked by a multi-layered marketing campaign, it offers duty-free retailers further means of achieving Bacardi GTR\u2019s long-stated aim: to premiumize the rum category in travel retail.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

According to the IWSR\u2019s 2023 figures, Premium+ rum in travel retail has grown 43% in value vs pre-covid and accounts for 34% of the category. Bacardi owns 9% of that segment. With BACARD\u00cd holding the status of the world\u2019s most awarded rum and, as travel retail market leader with 26.4% market share and growth of 19% vs pre-covid, the iconic brand and its wider family of sister rums means Bacardi Global Travel Retail is strategically placed to lead the premiumization and growth of the rum category.<\/p>\n

Tasting notes: Caramelized coconut sugar, sweet pineapple, cinnamon, vanilla and subtle oak.<\/p>\n
