The iconic rum brand took over a Lower East Side hotspot and transformed it into a premium rum haven, with each of the venue’s three floors representing a different expression from the new collection: BACARDÍ Añejo Cuatro, BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho and BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez.

As guests entered the space, they were whisked away on a journey of exploration and guided from one room to the next, enjoying BACARDÍ cocktails, small bites prepared by Chef Roblé and memorable performances by Nina Sky, DJ Brittany Sky, Drummer Malik DOPE, DJ Moma, DJ Nana Kwabena and Trumpeter Theo Coker.

Guests danced along with a live Bomba performance from Alma Mayo, were treated to an edible floral wall to garnish their drinks and received custom engraved cocktail shakers.
