  • Bacardí Gold Rum

    Gold Rum — Puerto Rico

    I can find the aromas of vanilla and brown sugar on the nose, but this rum tastes very thin has a fairly strong ethanol burn. I never figured on it being a sipping rum, but even mixing it into a daiquiri was underwhelming. Will not get again.

    Definitely more oily than syrupy. This is not just another Cointreau. It’s sweeter than I would have thought, but there is a bitterness like orange peel or grapefruit peel that comes with it. Tried it neat, and that is not how I enjoy it, but works great in Martinis, negronis, and spritzes.

    Pleasant grassy nose. Sweet agave notes. The ethanol burn is not to strong. Seems very good for the price.

    Good, but a little thin for me. The sweet caramel flavors up front are nice and the burn is fairly mild, but just not interesting enough for me to drink neat. Would probably be good as a mixer.

    Excellent! The right balance of cinnamon and other baking spices but not as sweet as Maker’s Mark. Just an all around good wheated bourbon with the right amount of burn at the end.

    Like Hendrick’s and rosewater had a baby. The floral notes are a little too strong for me to want to drink this neat, but it works great in cocktails. The wildgarden cup recipe on the back of the bottle is good, but where this novelty Hendrick’s really shines is in a negroni or a G&T where a bittering agent plays against the roses. Superb!

    Not really a tequila, but a tequila-based liqueur. Packs a decent punch at 70 proof, and it slams you in the face with a lot of citrus and not a lot of tequila-flavor. Would probably make a decent mixer, but not something that I would want to regularly sip.

    A definite improvement from the previous formula. This made an excellent vodka and tonic. Still very neutral overall, but less oily and less ethanol burn. Much more drinkable neat. The pepper and the lemon peel flavors are very subtle.

    This is excellent. For being nearly 120 proof, this is incredibly smooth. Has all the notes that I want: vanilla, caramel, and oaky. What a treat!

    I drank neat straight from the freezer as recommended, and the horseradish flavor was so strong it was like a kick to the tongue! I was not sure I was going to be able to finish my pour, but either it mellowed or I got used to it. It had a nice bit of honey sweetness on the back end as well. I’m looking forward to trying this in a bloody mary!
