After make the natives slaves and take them to almost extermination, they brought slaves from Africa. As a result, we became a mix of different cultures. I grew up in a poor Cuban family and it influenced my life in so many ways. When I was a child, I saw my parents work hard to put food on the table and to provide for the family the basic things to live. There were many unique things such as rum Havana Club, cigar Cohiba, and coffee La Llave that identify us all over the world and never were missed in my family. Rum is an alcoholic beverage obtained from the process of fermentation of sugar cane. It is a very popular beverage in Cuba, especially the Havana Club which is produced and manufactured there. Most people in my country always have at least one bottle at home and every day in the afternoon, after have a long day of work, they take to sit in the backyard or on the balcony and take some shots.

    For a little bit of understanding to this story Bacardi and Captain Morgan are alcohols. Bacardi is a type of light Vodka and Captain Morgan is a type of hard, dark Rum. Since one is light and the other is a dark liquor it means they do not mix together or they can make you really sick so that is why they are protrayed as enemies they hate each other. Mostly the whole plot contains Captain Morgan and Bacardi coming from opposite kinds of liquor that do not mix well but yet they still…

    Advertising usually paints alcohol as fun and socially acceptable, avoiding issues that arise by including a small, barely legible “Please Drink Responsibly” disclaimer. Companies like Skyy® and Bacardi® are notorious for fabricating lavish lifestyles, using sexually explicit imagery, and overall, stroking the narcissists ego. I hate to be the burden of bad news, but alcohol is the most used and commonly abused drug by adults in many industrialized countries. What many of these high-life alcohol…
