Bacardí Reveals a Brand New Pairing: Rum and Dominoes

Dominoes may not be what jumps to mind when thinking about rum, but Bacardí is set to change that, with a new limited edition Caribbean rum inspired game set.

Bringing a slice of island life to the UK

Launching just in time for Christmas, the unique dominoes set has been created in partnership with Caribbean Artist PopCaribe and promises to inject some tropical island spirit into the UK winter. Gather round with family or friends and play this timeless and simple game, while enjoying the iconic tipple.

A unique gift for Bacardí fans

And these are no ordinary dominoes. Presented in a keepsake engraved box designed by PopCaribe, each domino has been expertly crafted from reclaimed oak barrels that were previously used to age Bacardí rum under the Caribbean sun. The box includes a bottle of Bacardí Reserva Ocho, a premium 8-year-old aged rum, making it a quirky, yet luxury gift for a playful rum lover in your life. Or buy the set as a fun festive treat for the family – while the grown-ups get to enjoy the liquor, everyone can get involved with the game.

Upcycled and fragranced

Surprisingly competitive and fast-paced, the game of dominoes is ubiquitous in the Caribbean islands, especially during the Christmas period. The set’s crafting ensures it stays close to its Latin Caribbean roots — as well as giving upcycled rum barrels a new lease of life as a high-end gift, the dominoes origin ensures each is one-of-a-kind, with a deliciously authentic smoky aroma.

Each set retails at £75 and includes:

28 dominoes made from upcycled Bacardí barrels featuring an authentic smoky rum aroma on each tile
1 presentation box
1 dominoes box engraved with a bespoke PopCaribe design
1 70cl bottle of Bacardí Reserva Ocho 8-year-old aged rum
1 engraved recipe card for making a Bacardí Ocho Old Fashioned
