We traveled to Crescent City and landed inadvertently into a Bacardi weekend. At the grocery store Mrs Mai Tai suggested getting some rum in case there was no booze at the hotel. This Bacardi 4 was a good choice amongst the shelves at Safeway. The additional age means that this light rum has a little bit more mellow flavor compared to Bacardi Superior. I can see using this in cocktails.
When we got to the hotel we did find their bar was open, so I got a shot of Bacardi Black and Bacardi 151 to sample. The Black actually was kind of okay, like a lighter version of Goslings.
The 151 isn’t made anymore, and that’s probably for the best. I didn’t care for it at all. Very harsh.
