I despise Bacardí in favour of Havana Club. It's harder with top shelf bottles, but it's easy with basic selection. Overall quality score is so better for Havana and the price tag is almost the same. Havana miss the Dark rum and Oro/Gold one, but they are not essential. As I occasionally enjoy Havana 3 Aňos on rock, Bacardí is no go here. Bacardí basics are bit better than Morgan's, but you can get Morgan's with lower price tag. With white/blanca bottle, both the Bacardí and Morgan's can shake theirs hands here. they're both awful. The Morgan's is as usual cheaper, so we have winner between losers. But still, I will try to avoid both of them. Bacardí blanca is awful and you can't even make it into Molotov either because it only tastes like gasoline, but not burn like it...
Does anyone at Bacardi actually taste their stuff first?

First of all, this tastes exactly like Superior...and apparently it is, according to Bacardi's PR Dept. I recognize the familiar antiseptic odor of this watery goo as it burns its way down my gullet. Drinking it straight is a mistake. But mixing this poison into a cocktail would be a crime as well.
Remember...No matter how much any bottle of any Bacardi rum costs, you can find better rum one shelf away for the same money.

Reading this review you agree, that your brain will be atacked with Russian English:
I'm from the bourbon world, and when i wanted to understand what is Rum i bought bacardi carta blanca (yes, all with a small letter). I want to have a base point to start from. Like i do with Jim Beam White Bourbon some day. And Jim Beam White plays its opening role well. The thing that worked with the bourbon was a big mistake for a Rum world. White bacardi only deserves to be poured into the toilet.I don't understand how can it be so popular. How bacardi makes such a big money with such a bad product. Only alcohol with a little herbal smell. Cheap, bad, mass product only for mix. Do not waste your money.
Das hat mit einem Rum eigentlich nicht mehr gemeinsam. Spöttisch gesagt verkauft hier Bacardi das, was andere Hersteller wegschütten, noch als Rum. Geschmcklich unterste Schublade, nur bitterer Alkohol. Nicht mal zum Mixen geignet.
I have made a vow to never betray my commitment pertaining assessing spirits but I am hereby breaking that vow since it would be ridiculous to state anything about this unsavory, overpriced varnish
Anytime I think Bacardí found a new bottom of bad rums, they manage to surprise me. This is what happens when you just put a random gasoline in bottle and call it rum.
Why Bacardi is so popular? I don't get it, and becouse of those rums I have to tell people that there are great rums out there, and they don't believe me. But still it is good for mixing I suppose.
Den weißen Bacardi habe ich nur gekauft, um damit einen Orangenlikör anzusetzen. Beim pur probieren des Rums bin ich aber fast aus den Latschen gekippt, denn er schmeckt einfach richtig schlecht.
Würde ich nie wieder kaufen.
The name, only the name

Bacardi white rum, the first white light rum invented by Facundo Bacardi in Cuba, 1862.
Now we still have the name, Bacardi, the rum is still white, but they made it in Puerto Rico and it's probably the worst light style rum that you can find.
Choose the quality, not the brand.
Fui buscando un ron para mojito y acabe encontrando gasolina para barcos.
Dicen que el autentico mojito se prepara con la carta blanca de bacardi.
No se yo...
It’s a no for me.

Havana Club is a much better option for a good mixing rum to a cheap price. This one tastes more like vodka than rum and does NOT go well in cocktails.
