OK, now I'm definitely confused. I have seen lots of tins of something labeled Bacardi Superior with a vintage style label but I assumed that was just throwback packaging and the rum inside the bottle was the regular Bacardi drek. I was looking for and never saw a big "1909" or "Heritage" designation on the label, but maybe that's the stuff and I didn't know it. I guess the easiest thing will be to look at the ABV and if it's 44.5% it's the 1909 edition and if it's 40% it's the drek.

the 1909 Heritage bottle is packaged in a thick cardboard cylindrical container. The regular stuff is in the collectible tins right now. total wine also had a bacardi vintage or somesuch that was about a hundred bucks (no extra packaging).
