November 2, 2020

Home entertainment is simplified with an innovative cocktail pod solution for bar-perfect cocktails made with BACARDÍ ® Rum, available on Amazon

HAMILTON, BERMUDA, 02 NOVEMBER 2020 – Bacardi, the world’s largest privately-held spirits company, today announces the launch of TWISTAILS® cocktail pods, an innovative solution to make bar-perfect cocktails every time, transforming the at-home drinking experience and giving cocktail lovers the ability to play the role of professional bartender.

TWISTAILS®, which is available on Amazon in the UK / Germany, is designed to create your favourite cocktails from the comfort of your own home. Simply add water and ice to the TWISTAILS® shaker, attach the strainer, your cocktail pod of choice and twist, so no appliances needed! Shake well, et voila – your beloved bar-perfect cocktail is ready in just seconds.

TWISTAILS® is launching with three delicious classic BACARDÍ® rum cocktails featuring the signature rum Carta Blanca: BACARDÍ® Mojito, BACARDÍ® Strawberry Daiquiri and BACARDÍ® Rum Punch that are perfect for any season.

The cocktail pods use an innovative dual chamber which delivers a fresh cocktail experience every time that is sure to impress your guests. For a finishing touch, garnish your drink for an added twist of personalisation. The pods are filled with BACARDÍ® rum and natural flavours so you can now enjoy delicious bar-perfect cocktails for countless occasions, from get-togethers at home to garden parties, BBQs, or picnics. Both the cocktail pods and the packaging are recyclable.

With more and more people seeking convenience and home entertainment solutions, we asked ourselves how Bacardi could use its expertise as one of the world’s top spirits companies to create a product that would address this gap; and this is how TWISTAILS® was born. With the launch of TWISTAILS® we wanted to provide a solution that will show people you don’t need an elaborate set-up or countless ingredients to produce bar-quality cocktails at home – it can be as easy as a twist and a shake!”

About BACARDÍ® Rum – The World’s Most Awarded Rum
In 1862, in the city of Santiago de Cuba, founder Don Facundo BACARDÍ Massó revolutionized the spirits industry when he created a light-bodied rum with a particularly smooth taste – BACARDÍ. The unique taste of BACARDÍ rum inspired cocktail pioneers to invent some of the world’s most famous recipes including the BACARDÍ Mojito, the BACARDÍ Daiquirí, the BACARDÍ Cuba Libre, the BACARDÍ® Piña Colada and the BACARDÍ Presidente. BACARDÍ rum is the world’s most awarded rum, with more than 674 awards for quality, taste and innovation. Today, BACARDÍ rum is made mainly in Puerto Rico where it is crafted to ensure the taste remains the same today as it did when it was first blended in 1862. www.bacardi.com

The BACARDÍ brand is part of the portfolio of Bacardi Limited, headquartered in Hamilton, Bermuda. Bacardi Limited refers to the Bacardi group of companies, including Bacardi International Limited.
