BACARDÍ and Swizz Beatz Bring Rum Room Event Series to Miami Art Week

To close out Miami Art Week, BACARDÍ made its return to the 305 to hold Rum Room: Miami – the third iteration of five national events curated by the BACARDÍ Rum Society, an exclusive group of distinguished celebrity rum enthusiasts and ambassadors. Grammy Award-winning producer and longtime brand collaborator Swizz Beatz helped BACARDÍ conceptualize and bring the Rum Room to life, and further educate consumers on the versatility of rum. The iconic rum brand took over Faena Forum in Miami Beach for the second year in a row – transforming it into a premium rum oasis, with dedicated rooms championing each of the aged rum expressions, comprised of BACARDÍ Añejo Cuatro, BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho and BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez.

Serving as a living, breathing world of rum, the BACARDÍ Rum Room created an evening of excitement and discovery that showcased the brand’s culture, diverse flavor profile and set the rum standard. As guests entered the space, they were whisked on a journey of rum exploration and guided from the downstairs Diez speakeasy, where guests were treated to an intimate Diez tasting experience in the Atrium of Faena Forum to the upstairs Ocho and Cuatro rooms featuring an array of cocktails and interactive rum components. For the first time ever – guests during the preview hour were treated to a tasting of the new BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Especial, aged 16 years under the Caribbean sun, and available exclusively at global travel retail.

Hebru x Billionaire Boys Club x Adidas Originals Collaboration at Art Basel Miami

A fashionable crowd gathered with hosts Pharrell Williams and Hebru Brantley to celebrate the launch of the Hebru Brantley x Billionaire Boys Club x Adidas Originals collection. Guests sipped on artfully crafted Bombay Sapphire cocktails while viewing the new limited-edition shoe collection at the BBC ICECREAM Miami Pop-up during Art Basel Miami 2019, “the perfect place to drop these bold, artistic designs”, said cult artist and Bombay Sapphire partner Hebru Brantley. 

In celebration of the art fair and cult collaboration, guests mingled to the beats of DJ Jay Illa, with notables including Pharrell Williams, Hebru Brantley, Pusha T, Teyana Taylor, and PnB Rock. The crowd enjoyed the event’s signature, art-inspired cocktails, including the Flyberry Tea Punch, Bombay Lemonade, Citrus Smile Spritz, and the Painted Bombay and Tonic
