HAMILTON, Bermuda – BACARDÍ Rum and Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler are proud to announce a second collaboration with Butler’s premium coffee brand, BIGFACE. Following the success of BIGFACE’s first-ever spirits partnership with BACARDÍ in early 2024, the two are reuniting to bring the BACARDÍ x BIGFACE Café Con Ocho cocktail back to Miami.

As an avid domino player, Butler’s passion for the game perfectly complements the next phase of this collaboration. BACARDÍ will continue its popular Rum Room series, teaming up with BIGFACE Coffee to introduce the Domino Club event series. Select events will feature limited-edition merchandise inspired by Jimmy’s signature style.

“We are excited to collaborate with BACARDÍ again. Miami is a city that has shown me so much love—the culture, the energy, and the rich coffee scene are all part of my daily life. “I have enjoyed playing dominoes and visiting the parks in Miami’s Little Havana,” said Jimmy Butler, founder of BIGFACE Coffee. “Like me, BACARDÍ has a deep connection to this city, and creating the BACARDÍ x BIGFACE Café Con Ocho cocktail together with BIGFACE Coffee has been an incredible experience.”

“Jimmy Butler and his BIGFACE team have been exceptional partners, and this collaboration holds special meaning not only for BACARDÍ Rum but for the city of Miami,” said Lisa Pfenning, VP, BACARDÍ North America. “Dominoes, especially in Miami, is more than just a game – it’s a beloved tradition that unites people and fosters a sense of community. At BACARDÍ, we are all about embracing this important aspect of Miami’s culture and celebrating.”

The BACARDÍ x BIGFACE Café Con Ocho cocktail, a creative twist on the classic espresso martini, combines the smooth, rich flavors of BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho Rum, with its nutmeg and vanilla notes, with BIGFACE El Porvenir Espresso, which features aromas of grapefruit, currant, and sugarcane undertones.
