Following Jenna Hemsworth’s stunning Global Final performance in Amsterdam last month, entries have opened for another year of the BACARDÍ Legacy Cocktail Competition in Australia.

Now in its seventh year, BACARDÍ Legacy Cocktail Competition was established to challenge the best contemporary bartenders in the world to create their own cocktail Legacy – that will stand the test of time and ensure that both bartender and BACARDÍ are remembered like the illustrious classic cocktails of the past.

Drinks such as the Daiquiri and the Mojito are now revered as classic and are as much part of the unique legacy of Don Facundo Bacardi Masso as the rum itself.

This year’s entrants have an incredible opportunity to follow in the footsteps of Fred Siggins, Alissa Gabriel, Andrew Bennett, Dave Kerr, James Irvine and this year’s Australian Legacy title-holder, Jenna Hemsworth (pictured main).

With a credible record of reaching the top 16 on the global stage, Australian finalists in the cocktail competition have proven their skills to the international bartending community. Their incredible performances have gained them not only personal notoriety, but recognition of Australia as a significant contributor in the development of the bartending profession worldwide.

BACARDI Australia’s continuous commitment to supporting their competitors each year helps these aspiring bartenders forge their place in the Australian cocktail industry and develop the individuals’ entrepreneurial approach to their career. Keeping Don Facundo’s Legacy of quality, entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for innovation alive.

The 2020 Global Finals will be held from May 1-7 in Miami, US – a city with a long-standing association with BACARDÍ rum.
