About
Bacan Guaro, an award-winning, super-premium, kosher-certified aguardiente, is set to transform how consumers view and enjoy this traditional Colombian spirit. New to the market, Bacan offers a contemporary twist on a quintessentially Colombian beverage known locally as "guaro," making it an enticing choice for the discerning consumer.
Aguardiente, which translates to "fire water," is a traditional strong alcoholic beverage typically distilled from fermented
sugarcane and often flavored with anise, giving it a distinctive licorice taste. A beloved part of Colombian culture and tradition
known for its potent kick and fiery nature, it's commonly consumed neat as a shot in social gatherings and celebrations.
Bacan, meaning "cool" or "awesome" in Colombian slang, is shifting this paradigm. Bacan Guaro is a super-premium, luxury
guaro that is smooth enough to be enjoyed neat and delicious enough to enhance cocktails. Already winning awards in international spirits competitions for its taste, this innovative take redefines how aguardiente has typically been viewed and consumed. Bacan Guaro is a sophisticated
spirit ready to be enjoyed for any occasion.
Bacan is gently crafted in small batches using meticulously sourced ingredients: first-press organic sugarcane juice, organic Spanish star anise, and water. Skillfully and slowly blended, the result is a crystal clear, elegant, and versatile sugar-free aguardiente available in two strengths, both retailing for $49.99 each:
- Bacan 24 (48 Proof): With an ABV of 24%, this version is characterized by its sweet anise aroma, accented with subtle notes of citrus. Its smooth entry reveals flavors of black licorice, delicate floral and herbal layers, and a lingering spice.
- Bacan 29 (58 Proof): With an ABV of 29%, this light, airy spirit features a delightful nose of anise, black pepper, and rosemary. The anise flavor follows through on the palate, complemented by hints of citrus and ginger, finishing clean and refreshing.
Founding Story
Bacan Guaro is the creation of Colombian entrepreneur and media personality Diana Espinosa March in collaboration with her Italian/Spanish husband and brand architect, Ricardo March. Together, they embarked on a mission to revolutionize how aguardiente is traditionally consumed. "Our aim was to elevate the aguardiente experience and introduce Bacan to a discerning audience that may have never encountered this unique spirit. It is one of my most cherished traditions from Colombia, and I believe it deserves to be appreciated globally," says Diana. Determined to craft an exceptional guaro, they focused on using super-premium, organic ingredients tocreate a refined taste profile that appeals not only to Colombians but to discerning palates worldwide – and one that can be appreciated leisurely. After several years of experimenting, Diana and Ricardo perfected their recipe and process, blending ingredients from South America and Europe, mirroring their intertwined lives. The result is a delicious and refined spirit that honors tradition while embracing innovation.
