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.

I held off on trying for a long time this because I simply didn't expect to like it much. But I was rather surprised by the Bacardi Diez (10 year), so I thought I'd give this one a try. I like this even better (as do several other reviewers, interestingly enough) as it's even smoother!

A very smooth rum for the price ($21.99 at Total Wines & More, 2018). And it's rather tasty too. Like the Diez, this smells and tastes of molasses, vanilla, oak, and light spice. But it goes down even easier. This a fabulous rum for the money!

I think other reviewers might be subconsciously biased against the brand and/or low price.

Same level. Long time rivals. Bacardi 8 years is always more expensive than Havana Club 7 years. I believe that sum of money is for the marketing expenses.

The juice in the bottle was good for a mixed drink, but nothing special.

A little harsh, best with orange juice or some soda.

Not so smooth has a bite at the end. Color and flavor are alright.

Bacardi rums are some of my favorites. Great sipping rum, smooth, woody and smoky flavors

Poměr cena(koupeno za 550)výkon, jednoznačně spokojenost. Není nijak extra výrazný ani specifický. Vizuálně vděčný = vhodný jako dar. V chuti karamel a závěr trochu dřeva až s nádechem kouře alá whisky. Vůně ovocné tóny.

Not a bad rum, but nothing much to write home about.

Mivel itthon a cégnek csak a leggyengébb rumjait lehet kapni,így megörültem a lehetőségnek hogy megkóstolhatom. És meglepetés volt. Rumos ,füstös ízvilág,magában is élmény. Adjatok esélyt neki!
