Bacardi Reserva Ocho Rare Gold 8-Year

Might be good for some drinks but personally I dont like the specific taste and smell of Bacardi

A simple rum that goes well in a mixed drink or for sipping.

Rhum correct en soirée. Un nez frais et caramel, au goût idem avec un léger boisé et fumé assez prononcé. La finale est sèche et un peu raide qui pique le palais.

I really like Bacardi Ocho. You do not have the complexity and the length of some premium rums but for the price it is doing the job very nicely. I really enjoy one shot on a normal weekly day to close the diner. Strongly recommended.

Simple, easy drinking rum. Nothing remarkable. Better than I expected maybe.

This was my very first entry to the world of RUM. We were on diving trip in Mexico and I know, that I don't like the Tequila. One day I saw this piece in Wallmart, so I bought one and it was not bad. Also friends were excited and we all imediately switched to Bacardi :) Next day happened something strange - they started the sale offer in the Wallmart "one bottle with two glasses in bundle"... Man, after some 10 days in Mexico, we left there maybe 40 glasses :) (BTW, the offer was really mad, if I remember, it was about 14 euro! for 0.7l) I took one bundle back to Slovakia. From this point, I started to collect and sip the rums and discovering the wide varieties of taste and smell... :) Now, after some years, I think that this is "a good enough" rum of big brand, but not definitely the best one of my collection.

I prefer the bacardi 4 year old just a bit more...

To say the description on the bottle makes this suitable as a sipper, I was somewhat disappointed by the strong alcoholic flavour.

Definitely not as smooth as I'd have hoped.

With a decent ginger beer however, it was drinkable. But for the price I wouldn't be going out of my way to find another bottle.

This rum is quite smooth and the best way to drink it cold and try not to mix it. I recommend to drink without any soda drinks. It's a good rum.

Just bought this to fill the spot of my golden Puerto Rican rum for the tiki bar El bueno!
