Bacardi Gran Reserva Limitada 2017
Anyone who likes a quiet, woody Bacardi to sip slowly will get the most from this one. It's light oak, nutmeg, green apple and a soft nutty-mocha edge, with a bit of char on the back. Several tasters agree it "needs to rest" — flat on first pour, more layered after it breathes. Smooth at 40%, and a couple of people found it thin.

- Opens up with air
- Can read thin

Needs to rest to release its full potential.
Review by ZeroCool
Very nice rum, prefer on its own, mixed is good but shame to mix woody, complex 👍
Review by BTHHo 🥃
Flavors of nuts, mocha latte, chocolate, cherries and bananas as well as a slightly soft cigar tobacco.
Review by Shaun Abel
Smooth, can definitely have this straight.....this would be great with a light dinner. Enjoyable sipper.
Review by X-Savior
On The Rocks: On the nose no real decernable notes other then mild alcohol and very light oak. Taste has some fruit and floral notes with spice and slightly bitter char but fairly smooth. Starting to develop some complexity with a longer lasting finish. This is an enjoyable sipper once it has had time to breath. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose mild sweetness. Taste has mild sweetness with fruit, floral and spice notes. Extremely smooth and enjoyable mixed but you do lose some complexity in the finish.
