Cask & Cannon is the Disney Destiny’s pirate hideout: a richly themed lounge inspired by the legend and lore of Pirates of the Caribbean. It blends story, atmosphere, and an impressive lineup of rums and specialty cocktails. The result is an adult space that feels alive with character and full of discoveries.
During the media voyage, Ben from Disney Cruise Line shared insights into the inspiration behind the bar’s signature drinks. His focus was on flavor, story, and creating a pirate pub that feels authentic without losing the heart of Disney’s storytelling.
Storytelling Through Drinks
Imagineering influenced the narrative behind the drink program while the beverage team crafted the flavors. Each beverage was designed to feel like it belonged inside a Pirates of the Caribbean attraction—rooted in seafaring history, shipboard traditions, and rugged nautical life.
A Drink Menu Rooted in Pirate Lore
The cocktail menu is where Cask & Cannon sets itself apart. Ben walked through several highlights, including:
- Dead Man’s Chest – A two-person drink served in a wooden treasure chest. A blend of Zacapa 23 Solera Rum, pineapple, lime, agave, and coconut froth makes it both theatrical and refreshing.
- Barrel-Aged Rums – Some pours come directly from the barrel, a nod to traditional pirate storage.
-
Loose Cannons Rum Flight – A curated trio featuring Culverin 5-Year Blended Rum, Falconet 8-Year Dark Rum, and Sovereign XO 22-Year Dark Rum. This flight gives guests a chance to explore bold, aged rums with distinct profiles — a perfect fit for a pirate pub rooted in seafaring tradition.
- Bootleg Brews – Exclusive beers crafted for the Disney Destiny.
Each drink ties back to pirate storytelling, whether through ingredients, presentation, or name.
Hidden Details Worth Watching For
The lounge invites exploration. Props, maps, carved patterns, and art make each visit different. The more time you spend inside, the more details you’ll find. All of the details were inspired by Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, from the attraction to the silver screen.
One detail worth mentioning: keep your eyes open. You never know when Captain Jack Sparrow may stop by. Hint—he does.
