Bacardi Black

EM
had this rum recently

United States | Dark | 40% ABV

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.

This is one of the first rums i ever tasted... Enjoyed it a lot aswell... But when you try better rums you see this for what it is :)

Gambled on this and lost. Unless it's an aquired taste I just burned $25. I had to have a Lemon Hart after just to make sure there wasn't something wrong with the ice or Diet Coke - is it possible to get a duff bottle of rum? After drinking rum for 45 years this was a really nasty surprise. If I'm lucky they'll let me trade this for a bottle of something else at the bar where I work.

I've had this bottle for years and never opened it. It still had the old paper tax label on it. Finally cracked it open. It was a twist off so I wasn't expecting a lot. Has a somewhat strong alcohol smell. Very dark. Decent legs. While it is aged and dark, it is somewhat light on the palate. Not a great rum, but pretty decent for the $15 current store price.

You can't drink this rum straight up, so you have to mix it with cola or something similar. And if you like mixed drinks, there are way better options than this one.

I have not seen rum but I have heard it has been relabeled as the select, so I will rehash my rating from that one. Not a bad tasting rum up front but with a saccharine aftertaste.

Ale určite nie chutný rum. Osobne by som ho najradšej už nikdy nevidel. Žiaľ komercia je komercia.

This is not a sipping rum. I never mixed it as I was disappointed with the taste neat

Ale jo, za svou cenu docela dobrý a lehce pitelný komerční rum. K tomuto rumu ochutnanému na návštěvě mi bohužel chybí podrobnější poznámky. Časem možná napravím.

Puur, met ijs, met cola of in een cocktail, alles kan met deze allrounder. Maar je kan beter de Reserva kiezen.
