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.

Fairly sweet, maybe even a little too much, easy to drink

One of my favourites. Nice to drink straight, no need to mix

I'm not a Bacardi fan. But I have to admit that this one taste really ok.
Perfect for sipping. A bit too generic perhaps, but not boring.

Light nose but solid flavor. Smooth going down, no after taste to speak of at all. Solid supper but unspectacular

This rum is an excellent whiskey substitute. Price is fair. A little harsh to sip. In an old fashion though - very good

It's good, but it hasn't that complexity as Havana 7y.o. It's a little bit flat and empty.

Third rum of my Puerto Rico trip. Solidly in second place slightly behind Ron de Barrio 2 star and way above Don Q 7. This one is smooth and easy drinking but lacking what makes great rums great. One of those rums you have at a party to start with a "standard" rum, then impressive your guests with the good stuff later.

It's smooth and easy to drink. Nothing notable. Great deal for an 8 year. Not much going on. I got it for a column still aged rum as an ingredient in the Smuggler's Cove book. I'll probably get in again just to have on hand for that.

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.
