Bacardi Gran Reserva 8-Year

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.

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.

I never tried the earlier version of this. My rating of 7 puts it on par with Diplo Reserva and El Dorado 8 in my ratings, which feels right. In fact I prefer it to the El Dorado for a less extreme oak finish. And it's price is a lot less than the Diplomatico. So it earns a permanent spot on my shelf. I enjoy it as a sipper, and it's bold enough I'm sure it would shine with almost any mixer.

Not much for a rich rum smell, only slight sweetness on the nose. Taste is little to no sweetness, very woody and oak, some slight dried fruit. Drinks almost closer to a whiskey. Finish is very smooth though and is fantastic for sipping. If you are not a fun of overtly sweet rums or syrupy rums, this is a fantastic choice. Great for its price point as well.

Has a Nice flavor, and good one to start a tasting evening.
