Bacardi Gran Reserva 8-Year

it’s all about managing your expectations. At this price point (approx $35 Canadian) it’s rare to find a Rum that one can sip without grimacing. It competes with the Planation Grand Reserve 5 yr old for a value priced sipping rum and may actually come out ahead although there’s more than a $5 price difference between the two. It’s not as smooth as the higher priced sippers but you can’t expect it to be at this price. What it lacks in refinement is more than compensated for by its complexity and pleasant taste.

well done, typical bacardi flavour and aftertaste in premium service, good for fish and meat meal

Recommend Aircraft companies replace there current rage of the white Bacardi rum with this one ....easy drinking ....will buy again

This was smooth from start to finish. We sampled this over and over for quality control. We shared this on the rocks and will definitely keep some in the rum cupboard. This was preferred over the 10 year.

Smell is ok.
Taste is ok.
Aftertaste is ok.

I quite enjoy the smell and the colour of Bacardi 8 Reserva Ocho. The oak prevails in the overall taste. I enjoy drinking that rum on the rocks, since it makes the overall flavour more balanced, less oaky taste.

I'd probably prefer Havana Club 7 to this as it has a little more richness, but this one is good.

Po pricichnuti, lehce ovocny nadech. Chut po napiti prijemne sladka, ale zavet bohuzel trochu ostrejsi.

Nice step up from the normal Bacardi rums. This one can be sipped and is quite nice. Just not great. A solid every day rum sipped or mixed.
