Bacardi is the most renowned and respected rum producer. Various varieties of this drink are produced in Cuba, Jamaica, Martinique and Puerto Rico. To create a cocktail based on Bacardi rum, you need to choose the right variety.
Bacardi Superior
Bacardi Superior is a classic white rum with a strength of 40 degrees, created back in 1862. It is not customary to use it in its pure form and is used only for making cocktails - first of all, "Daiquiri", "Pina Colada" and "Mojito".
Bacardi Gold
Golden rum with an unobtrusive soft taste. This variety works best with cola and is therefore ideal for Cuba Libre and Long Island Ice Tee cocktails.
Bacardi Black
Black Rum from Bacardi is a premium drink that has been aged in barrels for four years. Bacardi Black is recognized as the best rum. It goes well with juice, but connoisseurs prefer not to mix it with anything.
Bacardi Flavored Rum
This is a series of rum with a variety of flavors, from lemon and peach to coconut and dragon fruit. The Bacardi company is the leader in the flavored drinks market and constantly surprises customers with unexpected flavor combinations. So, Bacardi Rock Coconut has a velvety creamy taste thanks to the presence of coconut water and cantaloupe, an exotic fruit native to Africa. Rum from this series is perfect for preparing tropical cocktails.
Bacardi 8
Bacardi 8 is another premium dark variety that has been aged for eight full years. It has a deep aroma with hints of burnt oak, honey, toffee and dark chocolate.
Bacardi Anejo
Bacardi Anejo (reads "Anejo") is a six-year-old rum with a taste of vanilla and caramel. Most often it is consumed by itself, but sometimes it acts as an ingredient in exclusive cocktails.
Bacardi 151
Bacardi 151 is for the most persistent. It is the strongest type of rum (75 percent) and is used exclusively for making cocktails, but some daredevils dare to drink it in its pure form. Many people cannot even stand the smell of this wayward drink.
Bacardi 1873 Solera
Light golden rum with a tart rich taste. It is combined with natural juices, less often with cola. Solera is considered the finest Bacardi variety.
Bacardi Select
Select is a blend of the finest Bacardi rums, aged for four years in oak barrels. It has apricot and banana flavors and leaves a long aftertaste. Good for exotic cocktails.
