Bacardi Carta Blanca

RumX members mostly reach for this as a mixer, citing a sharp, almost medicinal profile and faint grass or citrus notes. Ideal for boosting cocktails without adding much character—one to try if you enjoy spirit-forward drinks with minimal fuss.

Neutral, sharp and best for mixing cocktails—not sipping.

    How does this rum taste?

    • great for a long drink
    • muy buen ron ; suave y fácil de tomar
    • filter out as much as possible of the color and flavors

    Bacardi Carta Blanca lands on the nose and palate with a strong showing of alcohol sharpness, grassy lime glimpses, and medicinal, solvent-like notes. More than a few RumX members call it 'suave y fácil de tomar' (Santos Mercedes), while others claim it’s 'only good for cocktails, very strong aceton taste…' (RumX user). The consensus places it as a distinctly neutral rum: 'a vodka of rum of sorts' (Godspeed), with little to no aroma complexity and a tendency towards roughness when sipped neat.

    "Expensive neutral alcohol for mixing. Not for drinking straight, of course. There's probably no need to write more here, but there are many better spirits for mixing. When it comes to impact drinking, you're at home here."

    "Blank rum for mixing in cocktails or cola. Pure rather not, because very thin and medicinal."
