Born and raised in Trinidad, Farrell launched Ten To One Rum in 2019. He and Ciara met through mutual friends and the partnership arose from “shared core values.”
Ciara’s role will focus on amplifying the brand’s presence through marketing, creative projects, business developments, and partnerships. The overall goal is to create “meaningful conversation and connections” surrounding rum.
“I knew this was a natural partnership from day one,” Farrell stated. “The central idea that we are stronger together than we are apart, which is so foundational to Ten To One and to Caribbean culture, is directly embodied by her collaborative spirit and unmatched energy, and we look forward to continuing to rewrite the rum narrative with Ciara as a part of our team.”
