BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho is a premium aged rum, inspired by a family recipe from 1862 and known as The Family Reserve. Aged for a minimum of eight years, it offers a complex golden hue with deep, layered, and mellow flavors of dried fruits, spices, and oaky vanilla.
The aroma presents notes of dried apricot and banana leaf, while the palate reveals oak and spices, culminating in an expansive and well-rounded finish. This rum is ideal for sipping neat or as the base for classic cocktails like the Old Fashioned.
BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho is part of Bacardi's esteemed range of aged rums, which also includes BACARDÍ Añejo Cuatro and BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez. The brand emphasizes the art of aging, highlighting how time spent in barrels enhances the rum's complexity and depth.
