This feels like the vodka of rums: a little burn with a light taste. Serviceable for mixing with other rums without overpowering (like a Rum runner), for rum & Coke, or for drinks where people don't like an alcohol taste. It's also hella cheap and good for that price.

OK I admit I really liked 10 Cane rum, its sweetness and light flavor - it was fun to just drink. So now its gone and thus far CL is the only rum I've found close to that label of "fun" rum, sit back relax just simple to drink.

This is my goto mixer and base for home infusions. A bit softer and sweeter than most big name white rums.

Love it when bars have this as their rail rum. Very clean, not a ton of flavor, but that makes it a great mixer. Crisp, almost floral, and very smooth.

Definitely not a sipper, but works decently well in cocktails that call for a light rum. A little bit harsh, so not well suited to drinks that showcase the rum. Affordable price.

Smells of alcohol, vanilla and fruit. Flavor is similar and comes together pretty well. Smooth

I remember purchasing this one many years ago on with a minimum budget and it was on sale for a couple dollars less than Bacardi Superior. To my surprise, Cruzan Light was a much better mixer than its far more popular category mate. It makes a near perfect mojito that really outshines the likes of Bacardi or Don Q or Havana Club. It's is not, however, really much of a sipper, but if a drink calls for a white rum, you probably aren't going to find much better for the price point save maybe Flor de Cana 4.

Overall: 6.5 - great as a mixing white rum with little to no harshness and decently balanced.

This rum makes a great rum & Coke Zero. It doesn't bring attention to itself and give it a nice balance. It makes a great Rum Sickle too. Sells for less than Bacardi and it's SO much better.

Tasted 3/13/22 at Laka Lono after my Steph Tiki Lovers sampler.
This was a truly pedantic, unimpressive, boring rum. I suppose it is necessary and should be commended for not being annoying or foul.
Notes say simply " it's rum.""

Good all around booze. No bad tastes, actually nice rum, mixes well, and good in a daiquiri!! Not expensive at all. Keep a 1.75 on hand for cocktails. Don't waste the $$ stuff for that!!!

My go-to for white rum mixer. Two years aged, has a nice maple syrup and molasses taste on the tongue. Could be a sipper in a pinch, I suppose.
