    How does this rum taste?

    Rich caramel flavor
    Smooth sipping experience
    Aromatic complexity

    The Bacardi "Reserva Limitada," distilled in Bermudas from molasses using a column still, is a limited edition rum known for its balanced 40% ABV profile. With aromas of burnt sugar, vanilla, fruits, and leather, the sip unfolds with caramel, vanilla, and woody notes. While favored for its smooth, rounded sweetness, it draws mixed feedback on its overly sweet palate and modest complexity, making it a divisive choice among enthusiasts. Tasting notes suggest a slightly underwhelming experience for its premium price tag, yet it remains a noteworthy expression from Bacardi’s heritage.

     6,8:On the nose, the first impression we get is light with roasted wood notes as burnt sugar, caramel, nougat, spicy with vanilla, clove, cinnamon and fruity with an apple, a coconut. 7,3:On the palate, the attack is quite tasty, sweet with roasted wood notes as caramel, honey, cola and spices as allspice, perhaps cinnamon. It comes out a bit alcoholic, from the fruits, there are raisins, bananas, coconuts. 6,9:The finish is long, soft and syrupy, sweet with caramel, fruits like apples, some spices and burnt wood....

     This is a very nice sipper from Bacardi. Not at all pretentious but just an excellent rum. The average age of the rum released today is 12 years, slightly under what ir was when first released.
