IF YOU WANT A TRULY UNIQUE PROJECT, LOOK NO MORE...

Bacardi and Company was founded by Don Facundo Bacardi Massó in 1862. Originally from a province near Barcelona, Spain, Mr. Bacardi Massó migrated to Santiago de Cuba in 1830, where the Bacardi Brand was originated. It is important to note that Cuban surnames contain both the father's surname and mother's surname in that order. This is extremely valuable for genealogical research, which brings me to the story behind this project.

Hello, my name is Oscar Piloto Massó and my project Massó Estate Winery comes with some research, finding my place within the Bacardi family tree and in the process launching my own Wine, Winery and Bed and Breakfast. Sounds interesting? I know, this is very exiting!!! This all began when I recently discovered that my maternal grandfather is also from Santiago de Cuba, where Mr. Bacardi Massó and family are all from. Because it is not a very common last name, I became curious and inspired to learn more. Call it coincidence, destiny, or fate. In one moment, lives and circumstances collide, and change things forever. The odds may be small, however, I'm very excited to make this dream come true. I believe it is a FANTASTIC story to attach to my project. To think that the possibility of being part of the Bacardi Family inspired my new endeavor, it's a wonderful story to leave behind for my children and grandchildren. 

I ask that you please consider sharing and supporting me in this journey. If I have a fraction of the success that Bacardi has had, I'll be forever grateful and you can be part of this inspiring story to share with your family and friends.

I ask you to love this project!!!

I ask you to share this project with your family and friends!!!

How is the money is going to be spent?

I'm sure you can imagine the work and effort that this project has taken me so far. With your support, we can finish this extraordinary project together. After a 2 month wait, I received the Wholesaler Permit from the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau www.ttb.gov. With this permit I can approach and interview Wineries, Wine Makers and/or companies that do private labeling to find me a blend. 

I've been a wine aficionado for the past 7 years and I've acquired a taste for great wines. I want my first wine to be a Red Table Wine from California, Washing State or Oregon. 

That's where you come in!!! The money will be used for research, lawyers, website design, creating the wine label, marketing, sampling wines, selecting a wine and of course ordering the first cases. The more money I raise, the more wine can be ordered for the launch. 

I have received the first sample from different companies and that's when the fun begins. Friday 9/21/2012 I will get together with my board of advisors to start tasting our first samples and begin the selection process. I plan to record the process and share with you the behinds the scenes clips, from the wine selection to the creation of the label. 

The video will show you the Winery and the Bed and Breakfast I have in mind. Perhaps in the future, we can convert the Winery into a Vineyard.
