Bacardi Begins Producing Hand Sanitizers
Published by Bacardi ago
...
United States | Spiced | 35% ABV
Launched in 2011, Bacardi Oakheart is the newest addition to the extensive Bacardi collection.
This spiced rum is aged for 1 to 2 years, filtered using a proprietary process, and then flavored with various spices including maple, nutmeg, cinnamon and honey.
Bacardi Oakheart took over two years to name and more than 2700 names were considered. The winner, Oakheart, is a reference to the charred American white oak barrels that house the rum while it ages.

Was not impressed with this at all. It's hard to describe the taste, but it was not a good thing. I would use this a a mixer only.

Another rum-like "spirit drink" from Bacardi, not as sweet as the Spiced Golden but still tasting more like vodka with sugar & colorant than a real rum. Few notes of barrel, overall good only for mixing and quite drinkable, but far from being anything to remember.

This was drinkable but harsh for only 35%! In a bind this is something I could drink but will never buy it again.

Young and harsh but what else did i expect, that said its fine to be mixed. As for the taste neat, its raw green wood, some generic and slightly sickly sweetness followed by unidentifiable spices
with a not unpleasant aftertaste. I might buy it again sometime.
This might make a pretty good Cuba Libre, but it's not the best expression of spiced rum. There are simply no defining characteristics.
Bacardi's attempt at spiced rum is ok at a push - but Kraken or Sailor Jerry takes this to the cleaners for taste - mass market appeal for BMW or audi drivers who shop at next or think Ben Sherman is a quality brand!

Good spicy nose, and amber color. I recommend only for rum and coke.

Not really the kind of rum that I prefer. Works ok with pepsi. Not straight or on the rocks

It has decent balance of spices and light oak flavour and not as sweet as some spiced rums like captain morgan spiced gold. But still quite a lot of added sugar as most generic spiced rums have.
You could sip this , even though it isnt anything special. You taste the spices and sugar, has light amount of charred oak in the taste which is good. Sugary smoothness.
Good mixer for cuba libres, excellent in hot cocktails.
