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.

Bacardi superior is known for the bad mixing (bacardi-cola) in the clubs. But Bacardi 8 years is a surprise! A little ice is needed to brake the hardness and bring up the nice smokey aftertaste. A good sipper for a decent price.

This is a better rum for making drinks like Cuba Libre, but I rate my rums from the straight-up-experience. It's quite plain and bland but worked really good with cola and lime when I tried it.

Un ron que puede ser tomado en las rocas o con poca coca cola

As Bacardi rums go, this is definitely one of the better ones. Pretty good as a sipping rum, but excellent in tiki drinks. Nice!

Nice dark color. Interesting flavor that comes off a bit smoky. As someone who likes a good sweet scotch (Speyside), this was very good.

BEST Bacardi product I've ever tried - a brand known for being ultra-sweet-sweet-sweet, this one has a LOT more character in its taste profile than just tons of overbearing sugar. Smoky oak & spice push through nicely, gently heating up the palate, and a nice finish lingers, with ever-so-slight a burn in the throat, but not so much that it's an unpleasant experience. A quality sipper, much to my surprise and delight!

I keep coming back to this rum. The smoothness is very similar to the Captain Morgan's Private stock; but the taste is better. I just wish it came in a bigger bottle.

This is at the moment my "everyday" rum. It's affordable, easy to find and has a nice taste to it.

Este es el Bacardi que se debe pedir en un restaurante-bar. No tiene cuerpo para tomarse derecho pero esta hecho para mezclarse y cumple con lo esperado. Su sabor toca tonos de madera y vainilla

This is a great entry into the market from Bacardi, smooth yet flavorful. Could be a 9 if it had more depth.
