United States | Light | 40% ABV

Bacardi Superior Rum is the original Bacardi rum, dating back to 1862 when Don Facundo Bacardi Massó 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.

This is the first rum I ever bought. My thinking was that if it's so common, it must be representative of what a rum should taste like. Oh boy, how wrong was I. This Bacardi singlehandedly made me lose out on the wonderful world of sipping rums for a very long time (yes, I know it's not primarily intended for sipping). Luckily a friend had a bottle of Zaya rum, and that made me realize that rums can taste completely different and be worthwhile spirits, so much that I now mainly drink rums (bumped down whiskeys and cognac as my previous go to spirits).

I don't even know where to begin to describe this rum. It just doesn't taste like rum or anything else anyone should drink. Chemical like. Why would anyone continue to buy this? It's even terrible when mixed with Coke. Stay far far away.

This Rum is hands down my favorite Rum when mixing with Coke. I am not a big spiced Rum fan. So I think it would be cruel to rate this Rum as one that you would drink straight. I don't think that is the true purpose of this Rum. If I am having a Rum and Coke, this is one for me!

This rum is every where and they sell a lot of it, so they must be doing something right? As for this its a white rum its no sipper nor is it very enjoyable with cola.
but in a proper Mojito its smashing,so keep this rum where it belongs in the cocktail.

Say what you will about Bacardi. I personally love the taste. You take one swig and it feels as though you've been transported to the Caribbean, barely noticing the alcohol bite through as the viscous, tropical blend dances around your gums.. Can you say 'paradise'? Not only does it get the job done, it does so at around $15 a bottle. In my opinion it can't be beat. A true workhorse. Save the expensive stuff for when you need to get fancy, swallow your pride and get fucked up off Bacardi lol

Awful bar rail standard that should be avoided if possible.

There's really not much to this rum. Smells like a wet rock, but the taste includes a hint of sugarcane and vanilla. While it's certainly ok, there's a lot of better rums out there. You can easily drink this straight at 40%abv, but again there's a lot better.

La seul chose avec laquelle je peux mélanger ce rhum c'est avec du coca, ils se marient très bien ensemble.

And you can call it a good afternoon. Few of those and see if the rating doesn't change a few points.

This is the first rum I ever tasted, I was around 10 years old and accidently drank one of my parents Bacardi & Coke instead of my own regular Coke. Even at that age I somehow knew there were better rums out there and never went back.
Its decent to mix with coke/cocktails when you don't want to add any flavour, but besides that I can't think of a reason to buy it.
