Bacardi 8 rum

Bacardi 8

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.

A mass production could be this good. I enjoy on the rocks. Brought out flavors of caramel, molasses, a slight bit of vanilla and lastly tobacco. Not too sweet and is very bold. For my pallette very rich in taste and slightly better than Captain Morgan Private Stock.

My brother bought me a bottle of Havana Club Selection... and I spent weeks trying to find something that came close to the flavor....I finally found it in this Bacardi 8! It is VERY close... the first sip hits you with an intense sweetness, but that goes away quickly and then tons of flavor hit the palate! It also has that wonderful oak barrel flavor that is so hard to find in a good, but not expensive rum! This is a wonderful sipping rum, especially with the right kind of cigar! (A. Fuentes Hemingway is my legal choice!) This will not disappoint you, and you can not beat the price! High quality at a very reasonable price!

Smooth and smoky, definitely not bad Bacardi, decent price for what you get , and a pretty good flavor.

The Bacardi 8 is a nice sipper for me. I have not tried it as a mixer yet. Easy to drink, a bit of sweetness, oak.

Versatile rum with vanilla and caramel notes with hints of smoke and coffee. I drink it neat with ice but also mixes well with coke, defintely brings out the vanilla if youre into that. All the haters here just hate bacardi and fail at being impartial.

Too neat for my taste, but the box was nice. Wasn't any good without coke.

Nice to sipping. Bahamas. "Islands in the Stream" by Hemingway.
There are no perfect, no flaws already.

Top Preis-/Leistung! Sowohl zum Purtrinken als auch gemischt mit Cola zu empfehlen!

Deserves a better rating than its receiving. My favorite sipping rum. Doesn't have the notes of molasses - which makes other rums too sweet. Just great to GAI. (Get after it).
