Guys, I typically love your videos (even many of your sponsored ones), but this is just bad. Some of the higher end, aged Bacardi products are fine like Bacardi Ocho but Bacardi “Superior” and Black are inarguably some of the worst in their segments. The superior is low proof, hot garbage that somehow has the same quality of low quality vodka, very little rum flavor and aroma, and lower proof than other rums in this price point. If you’d like to pass on the feedback that their product decisions have resulted in detractors in the rum loving, mixology world, you definitely should.
Also, I don’t know what that second drink was, but it’s not a zombie (it seems like one of those milquetoast recipes straight out of a drinks brands marketing department). Not because it’s low proof, but a zombie needs Jamaican rum, burnt sugar of Demerara rum, cinnamon, and grapefruit to even be recognizable as that drink. The upshot is that what you made will be infinitely better than whatever the hell is in their RTD blue “zombie” or their recipe on their site (https://www.bacardi.com/us/en/rum-cocktails/zombie/).
I’ll end on a high note. The Goblin looks interesting and I will be trying that recipe, but with an actually good white rum.
Coconut cream always adds a great texture change to drinks. Really good to give to people who are used to drinking very thing either on the rocks or with carbonation.
Bacardi is about as close as rum gets to vodka. I'd almost guarantee that, if you did a blind taste test, most people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the two. It has next to no flavor besides ethanol.
A Zombie is something along the lines of this: – 1.5 oz aged Jamaican rum – 1.5 oz gold Spanish style rum – 1 oz Demerara 151 rum – 0.5 oz falernum – 0.75 oz lime juice – 0.5 oz Don’s mix (2 parts grapefruit juice to 1 part cinnamon syrup) – 1 tsp grenadine – 1 dash angostura bitters – 6 drops absinthe
Bacardi Ron Solera and Reserva Ocho are very nice, but their white rum is too clean for my tastes. It's almost vodka. That said, I'm liking the history mixed in to the video. If you're going to do sponsored content from time to time I think it's good to at least educate your audience a little bit.
Also the Blood Moon looks like a drink I'll try. I'm a fan of the Dark and Stormy so I'm already of the opinion that ginger and rum go together.

Loving the apron! And the drinks sound great!!!

I find bacardi light rum to be essentially flavorless
You wanna goblin? Goblin Deez nuts!

Really interested to try the Goblin, what's your coconut syrup recipe?
We can collectively forgive the Bacardi use as the video is sponsored by them

Not whatever that cocktail is.
I like that fancy edit with the last cocktail ice.
Marius rollin up to the slicing competition with a mandolin… 😎
Nothing bad about Bacardi at all and if they are going to partner with you, even better. Great work! Thanks 🙏🏻
I like the nice overlay effect at 10:12 – took me a minute to realize what happened – genious.
At 4:10 I'm trying to distinguish between Leandro's normal shaking technique and his serial killer look.
Use Don Q crystal instead
Great cocktails.
The Goblin, in particular.
Far from my favorite rum, but I love seeing creators I like getting sponsorships from big brands like this.
ALRIGHT WE'RE SQUEEZIN SOME LIME!

Bacardi is a classic for a reason
When is ICE going to deport Marius for visa overstay???
Why peddle this shit? It's literally just a bad vodka made from sugarcane
Which brand is this apron?
