Romero Distilling Company becomes Guinness World Record holder
The Romero Distilling Company has just broken a very impressive Guinness World Record.
The luxury rum producer was also a world record hopeful and that dream has been realized today by making the largest Cuba Libre Cocktail ever. A Cuba Libre is a rum and coke, often served with a lime.
The previous record was a staggering 500-litre Cuba Libre, made in Havana as part of the 22nd Pan-American Cocktail Competition in 2018.

“Romero’s GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS Largest Cuba Libra Cocktail, which filled the 1.2-metre cubed glass, was made with the perfect ratio of Romero’s award-winning rum, lime juice, and cola,” said Tim Romero, co-owner of Romero Distilling Company, in a press release.
Even WWE Hall of Famer and Romero Ambassador Brett “The Hitman” Hart was there to celebrate the occasion.
“As the only rum-driven distillery in western Canada, Romero has afforded many, including myself, the unique opportunity to enjoy quality, locally-crafted rum,” said Hart in the press release.
