Pure Joy turned into Grief and Terror then finally Relief coursed through me. For 90 minutes, I was completely immersed in the experience that is AMPARO. And that is exactly what AMPARO is; a complete theatrical experience. As I am writing this I can still feel all the emotions I went through when I first participated in AMPARO. I say participated because you don't watch AMPARO, you live it. I also haven't stopped talking about it to anyone who will listen and even now when I describe the experience as I am urging family and friends to GO SEE IT, I get goosebumps. I fear that I won't do the experience justice with my mere words but I will do my best.

'AMPARO,' an immersive theatrical experience, makes its official South Florida premiere in the Spring of 2019 after two highly well-received theatrical pilots in New York and Miami

Approximately 330 miles…That's how far Havana, Cuba is from Miami, Florida. Within that space lies a distance of less than an hour. However, to some people it might as well be a lifetime away. I remember all my childhood being told about what Cuba used to be by my grandparents. As a third generation Cuban American living in Miami, Florida, as soon as we start to crawl, you are hearing about the good ole days before Fidel Castro stole Cuba from the people - people who still long for home. So I was thrilled to research into AMPARO. This one of a kind immersive theater experience is based on the compelling, true story of an immigrant family's triumph through exile. From present-day Miami to 1957-Cuba, where you will follow cast members through the Cuban Revolution, bearing witness to the story of the Arechabala family--founders of THE REAL HAVANA CLUB rum.

HAMILTON, Bermuda, March 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ In celebration of World Water Day today, Bacardi announces it has launched an in-house initiative to remove straws and stirrers in cocktails at company events.

The iconic BACARDI bat emblem is one of the most recognizable trademarks in the world, so coincidentally, as a Bacardi-owned brand, it's only natural that BOMBAY SAPPHIRE had to deal with bats during the recent renovation of the BOMBAY SAPPHIRE Distillery at Laverstoke Mill in England.

If walls could talk at the BOMBAY SAPPHIRE Distillery at Laverstoke Mill, they'd tell you that they once served the British Empire, that years of disuse did not diminish their architectural beauty, and that they now house one of the most forward-thinking, sustainable gin brands in the world, within.

The elegance and sophistication of multi-award winning MARTINI Asti sparkling wine is built on a more than 150 years of great taste and contained in bottles with an iconic shape and sustainable design.

The beautiful hills of northwest Italy are steeped in tradition, as well as forwarding-thinking practices for a sustainable future. The region is home to MARTINI, producer of the world's leading vermouth and favorite sparkling Italian wines, for more than 150 years.

Ongoing environmental efforts to protect Fiji's spectacular Great Sea Reef and lush tropical farmland include a model sugarcane farm initiative backed by Bacardi, maker of the world's favorite rum, and the conservation group, World Wildlife Fund (WWF).

Just as the making of BACARDI rum is an exacting science, so is the crafting of every bottle bearing the iconic bat logo and prestigious Bacardi family name. Bottles for each distinctive brand in the award-winning rum portfolio are highly engineered crafted for beauty and environmental efficiency.

Bacardi Limited is raising the bar on environmental sustainability, site by site. The high standards are evident at the BACARDI rum distillery in Catano, Puerto Rico, where the Company recently constructed three new aging warehouses using tons of recycled concrete.

There's a new benchmark for the BACARDI rum brand - a global Good Spirited commitment to protect the environment - from the timberlands of southern Georgia to the sugarcane fields of Fiji.

Everywhere Bacardi Limited does business, sustainability is something that's not just encouraged it's expected. Today, on the 152nd anniversary of its founding, family-owned Bacardi rolls out an ambitious sustainability campaign globally. Good Spirited: Building a Sustainable Future launches across the more than 150 markets where Bacardi sells its brands, including more than 75 offices and 27 manufacturing and bottling facilities, touching each employee.
