Bacardi Black

Originally named Bacardi Black, this rum is now called Bacardi Select. The recipe is the same, which consists of a blend of aged rums, charcoal-filtered once before resting for at least 4 years in American White Oak.

Very harsh to drink, even with coke and lime had a strong chemical/ straight alcohol flavor... For the same low cost point there are other far superior options...

So heavy and chemical, I have not understanding at all for the product. My friends and me drink it as punishment.

solid for mixed drinks such as a dark and stormy but really not a sipping rum. buy in large volume to get value.

I recently tried a black spiced rum that I really enjoyed and I wanted to try some black rum that wasn't spiced for comparison... I hope this god-awful sewer sludge is not a fair representation of non-spiced black rum. Now it's sitting in my fridge mocking me, the thought of drinking it turns my stomach but I don't want to be wasteful and throw it away... I really think that's all it's good for. I even tried mixing it with coke to no avail. I would have thought Bicardi had higher standards than this.

Had the misfortune of wasting my money on this stuff. If you want to drink alcoholic charcoal, then this is your lucky day!

Yes, I know that aging liquor in a charred barrel imparts a smoky flavor, but this tastes like they drained the rum, scraped the barrels, and bottled the charred scrapings instead of the rum.
This. Is. Not. Rum. (It's reconstituted soot.)
Stay far away!!

What can I say really; poor flavour profile, mass produced, and lacking any redeemable qualities. I would recommend almost any other dark rum over Bacardi

Mix away with this one. It is cheap, but honestly there's better for not much more. Harsh, alcoholic.
