Named 'Bacardi Oro' after the Spanish word for 'gold', this rum was first produced in 1862. Bacardi Gold is blended from 14 different rums aged one-to-two years to produce a rum with a more pronounced flavour profile than Bacardi Superior.

Review and Tasting

Sampled on 06/06/2014

Appearance

Clear, pale golden.

Aroma

Restrained butterscotch, toffee and muscovado sugar with light oak.

Taste

Rich 'burnt' palate with hints of charcoal, vanilla, toffee, fudge, dry walnut and citrus fruit. Faint top notes of what I describe as Bacardi's distinctive mushroom/blue cheese yeast.

Aftertaste

Citrus and fudge with faint blue cheese.
