United States | Light | 40% ABV

Bacardi Superior Rum is the original Bacardi rum, dating back to 1862 when Don Facundo Bacardi Massรณ purchased his first rum distillery in Cuba. 150 years later, Bacardi Superior is now manufactured in Puerto Rico, but the recipe remains largely the same.

A unique strain of yeast discovered in the Cuban sugarcane fields is used to produce Bacardi Superior rum. The rum is filtered through charcoal, a process pioneered by Bacardi, before and after it is aged in oak barrels for at least one year.

White rum is filtered and barely aged. It's SUPPOSED to mostly be a blank canvas for mixed drinks. Heck, it's one of the most traditional silver rums used in mixed drinks so it's how a lot of them were balanced.
It smells mildly sweet and tastes to me like nearly nothing at all.

I see no reason to drink it straight, but if I didn't want to screw up a classic drink, like a coquito or tiki drink that calls for a white Puerto Rican rum, I would hesitate to swap it out.

Bacardi superior or carta blanca is a standard light rum for fruit cocktails and Coke mixer. Nobody claimed that is a sipper! Party rum? Yes. And serves it's purpose!

This is the rum that made Bacardi famous - and it's distilled just a few miles from my home in Puerto Rico! A good, all-purpose rum for drinking straight up or, as I prefer, mixed with fruit juice, like my favorite Passion Fruit!

Nothing super special but I canโ€™t deny how good it is. Great mixer and not overpowering.

Ideal to use as a mixer, available in near enough every shop. Cheap and cheerful ๐Ÿ‘

Bacardi gets blasted as a "rum for the masses" -and it is that. Funny thing is, it gets voted higher in blind taste tests than many "top end" rums. To me, it's a nice standby for fruit juices, Coke, etc.

Not the best but you can always go to it when you need it.

I love to drink bacardi rum in pleasant cold weather or in winter with a lot of meat, cheese and salad because all alcohol dry your mouth and stomach.

I use it in orange juice or coke and it is fine. I never have tried it straight up or on the rocks.
