Bacardi 8

had this rum recently

United States | Aged | 40% ABV

Bacardi 8-Year is a blended rum, filtered using the Bacardi-pioneered charcoal filtering system and aged for eight years.

This rum was not released to the public until 1995, when the first limited edition Bacardi 8 was sold with a sherry oak finish in a Baccarat crystal decanter. Despite a price tag of $400 per bottle, the rum was hugely popular and led to the larger release of the blend without the collectors' features and price.

This one, definitely not my favorite, but decent rum. Even though I must admit I like this one with cola or fanta more than just neat. Ok, but nothing special I think.

Not bad nut not great either.
Taste goed away very soon and the flavours are weak. Good for a mix but not a sipper.

For all the Bacardi products this is really the only rum I can recommend. Not so much neat but a very good Cuba Libre.

For a very commercial rum it is actually good. Kind of spiced-like on the nose, but far from it when you taste it. Toe to toe with Havana 7 as the go to “premium” bottle.

Sweet, sugary in taste, and simple - ok to sip in small quantity. Not much there, really.

I realy dont like the normal bacardi. Though this one is not bacardi like. Quite a good aged rum.

Mixed with cola, inexpensive, great every day rum that you’re not afraid to mix

Good smooth blended rum. Comparable to some bourbon blends from Jim Beam in Bardstown, KY. Want to try the 10 and 12 to see if there is a noticable age progression.

I was expecting more from this one. Still not a very good rum.. I don't know what all who give this rum a high rating have been drinking lately but this is nowhere near a decent rum. Hangover waiting to happen
