Bacardi Gran Reserva 8-Year

Orange yuckiness, artificial and bitter even nose smells rancid. Cant sip it, would be ok in an old fashion

Canny. A slight burn. Smells nice. A bit medicine-y

Ezt is meg kellett kóstólni, nem lett jobb a véleményem a bacardiról... pedig lehetne 8 éves is

Surprisingly nice to me, I see some bad reviews on here but I really don't hate this one. Definitely tobacco and cherry, and no real sharp edge.

This would be good in a rum and coke. But it is NOT a sipper. Thin, no complexity and out of balance. A little oak and a spec of vanilla. Nothing else. Unlike most Bacardi it is drinkable but would be much better mixed with something this rum is not, something smooth and flavorful.

This rum is not bad for the price I pay, but since I can add a few more dollars for the 10 year old I’m not really going for this one anymore.

I actually like the cheaper Bacardi black better. I found the black more smooth and enjoyable, this one seem to have a little harshness to it. Just a more expensive middle ground rum, I won't buy it again.

I have a few of the old bottles when it came with a black bag.
It’s good stuff a little bit harsh but I always like to a piece of ice to bring out the flavors and tone down the bite and buen

I really like this rum. One of the best Bacardi I have had

It is not as terrible as I feared when I read "Bacardi". Plus the bottle and the stopper are well-made but without unnecessary flannel. I like that.

The nose is very thin. Some raisin, a little bit of wood. Maybe some spice. A bit of alcoholic bite in the nose, but not too much so.
Taste is sweeter than anticipated, but not unpleasantly so. Taste is dried fruits, mostly raisin, light molasses, honey, a hint of alcohol. Plus there is minimal funk, which helps to keep things from getting too boring.
While the rum is relatively light, it holds its own in grog or mixed with fruit juice.

Reminds me of a rum from Barbados that I tried (sold by the German supermarket chain Rewe).

Too expensive for what is is. But not bad.
