“I got this one from a friend because he wanted to tease me, but he failed because though I don't like Bacardi I was nicely surprised. The nose is light and a bit sweet. Vanilla is very obvious with oak without overpowering the caramel, coconut and honey. The palate is sweet fruity with cinnamon, peat and oak. A nice surprise and definitely one you can enjoy without mixing. The finish is medium long, warm and sweet.”

“Would have expected a little more here, even if I'm not a Bacardi fan anyway. Seems extremely thin and watered down and strangely smoky like Scotch whisky... Unfortunately quite a disappointment.”
