Bacardi 8 rum

Bacardi 8

CJ
had this rum recently

United States | Aged | 40% ABV

Bacardi 8-Year is a blended rum, filtered using the Bacardi-pioneered charcoal filtering system and aged for eight years.

This rum was not released to the public until 1995, when the first limited edition Bacardi 8 was sold with a sherry oak finish in a Baccarat crystal decanter. Despite a price tag of $400 per bottle, the rum was hugely popular and led to the larger release of the blend without the collectors' features and price.

The only time ive tasted a 8 Old barcadi rum. I didn’t believe it was one if theirs. But it gave me hope for their Company as a hole. It tastes Well for younger rum and has a few curvs.

5.5 on my scale, but bottles aren't half full or empty here. First tried in Puerto Rico at the factory. A nice surprise given my past experiences with the brand.

Inge vidare, sämst av de som provades. Kanske skall prova om utan konkurrens?

I swear it is really difficult to distinguish this from other Bacardi rums like Reserva. This one is sort of ok but very lackluster. Thin, not complex. No balance or real bite. It just is a boring. You can’t pick this out of the flock. Bacardi just isn't a very good distillery. What they do really well is marketing and merchandising.

Un rhum correct, simple (presque trop) et facile à boire, un peu sucré. heureusement, trouvé en promo à moins de 18 € chez Au...chan...
Wonderful with cola

I gotta say as some others have, this is an OK rum but not good enough for sipping.
It is a bit to aggressive for that.

But mix it into a drink and it goes a pretty long way.

Scent of fruit and tobacco. Light taste of citrus and slightly burned rubber. Too light in my taste
