Bacardi Gold

Guestphil avatar image had this rum recently

United States | Gold | 40% ABV

Bacardi Gold rum is manufactured in Puerto Rico where it is distilled from fermented molasses. It is then filtered through charcoal and aged in charred oak barrels for between 1 and 2 years. Unlike Bacardi Superior, Bacardi Gold is only filtered once.

Bacardi's official logo, a fruit bat, dates to 1862 when founder Don Facundo Bacardi found fruit bats living in rafters of the building he bought to house the distillery. Bats are considered an omen of good luck in Cuba and have emblazoned Bacardi rum bottles ever since.

Smooth and enjoyable, great value for the price. Perfect with Coke, not to my flavor mixed with citrus.

I bought this rum before I read all the heinous reviews on this website, which made me worry that I'd made a terrible mistake.

It turns out that, in my opinion, this is a fine rum, great for mixing and not bad for sipping.

It smells of vanilla, clove, and caramel, with only a very sense of alcohol. I almost get a whiff of black cherry as well.

The taste is gently sweet and very spicy. Not much burn, but it does have more bite than similar rums at the same price, although a cube of ice clears that up easily.

The aftertaste is refreshing and has a vanilla and apricot flavor.

I will concede that it lacks the complexities of a good sipping rum, but it isn't unpleasant on its own.

In short, if you had to buy one bottle of cheap rum for both people who like mixing and people who like sipping, it's a decent choice -- especially if you can't find Cruzan 9.

I feel Bacardi is a good average to slightly above for a mixer with cola. It to me is a standard for a rum and coke. Not good for sipping. Good one to have in the bar for mixing.

Standard rum served at our corporate conferences. It is fine with Coke or Ginger Ale.

My first Gold rum. Loved the caramel taste in cola. Great in mixed drinks, brings a real sweetness of it's own

Rum is a bit better for mixing with cola (cuba libre) than superior.
