Bacardi 8

A real rum.. not much flavor, not so smooth.. but not too rough.

Good entry level sipping rum at an excellent price

E gusta el sabor, la suavidad, aunque se nota ese regusto alcohólico un tanto fuerte por eso la nota que aunque se pudieran dar décimas no le pondría muchoas, para combinar no lo usaría y en cuanto al precio no está mal 14'95 / litro, si repetiré? No sé, hay otros que me gustan más y no son más caros

I prefer the Bacardi 8 as a mixing rum when I’m making a rum and coke. It had a good molasses flavor that pairs nice with the soda. I find it to be a little bitter when drank neat.

While majorly not an 8 year old rum, there are still good oak notes. A well balanced blend with strong toffee, oak, and vanilla notes.

A good rum for it’s price. Not for sipping but very good in cuba libre.

I know it much more complex than the dark
but it Still servess as a mixer, although you could sip it on a hot day with ice.

Good for cocktails, not great... wouldn’t sip it... Good value for a basic rum.

Like anything involving the island of Cuba, I think politics plays a role in anything related to the island, not excluding rum.
I've read the reviews of Bacardi 8 and I think an inherent anti-Cuban exile bias plays a review.
I will state that I am a Cuban exile living overseas, and I have bought various variations of Havana Club while living outside the U.S.
I have tried Havana Club 7 años añejo as a sipping rum for my weekly Old Fashioned, and just purchased Bacardi 8, as my local supermarket had it discounted at half price.
After drinking Havana Club añejo 7 años for more than a year, I much prefer Bacardi 8 as a regular sipping rum.
I drink it with an ice cube, and it goes down smoother, with less burn, than Havana Club.
Sorry to dispel the naysayers. I know it's cooler to favor the brand that actually comes from the island.
But Bacardi carries on its heritage.
Viva Cuba Libre.

Klassisches Rum-Aroma mit einem rauchige Anteil. Wenig Süsse, leichte Frucht, in dem Preissegment empfehlenswert. Vergleichbar mit dem Havanna Club 7yo aber "geradliniger" und nicht so süss.
