This is not a special one or anything like that... hence not the best taste even in cocktails...

For a mixed drink it works. Would never drink it on its own. I've seen people say it reminds them of band-aids? I didn't get that just burning and some spice. Personally think it's overpriced for how underwhelming it is. Seems like one of the club alchohols people order to sound like they know liquor.

At first this rum seems to have a bit of a bad rep, but I must say it's much better over runs such as malibu black. This rum has a tad lighter color than some traditional rums I have seen, suck as Kraken, although I suspect it is darkened by a bit of caramel.

Chilled, this rum seems easy to drink straight for me, the aftertaste is a bit of a sweet cane and slight bitterness. The burn while drinking this rum is actually not that bad at all.

Overall, this rum may seem bad at first, but I think this can be a decent rum for a backyard party or a decent mixing rum for a cheap but doable drinking party.

I use this to make a Dark and Stormy... has a nice smooth finish. I have found it to be the best dark rum to make this drink.

This smells and tastes like cough medicine. Could barely drink while mixed with coke. Wont do it again.

That's about all I remember about Bacardi Black... rum and cokes in my early days that left with with heartburn and a bad hangover.
