Nochebuena Dining Experiences

BACARDÍ Partners with Candice Kaye for a Holiday Dining Experience

A new holiday dining experience is coming to Toronto thanks to a collaboration between BACARDÍ and Toronto-based textile designer Candice Kaye. The theme of the pop-up borrows sensibilities from Latin cultures, more specifically 'Nochebuena.' This is the word that depicts the night of Chrismas Eve in Spanish.

BACARDÍ embraces this theme as the brand wants to highlight its Cuban roots. Dubbed 'Casa BACARDÍ,' the holiday dining experience extends the "simple Cuban tradition of great food and drinks with family and friends."

Casa BACARDÍ features custom designs and decor, curated by Candis Kaye herself. In addition, the experience will boast Cuban cuisine, music, and festive cocktails — from the BACARDÍ Anejo Cuatro and the BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho to the BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez.
