The original, mixable light rum, Bacardi Superior starts out as a pre-blend of the lightest distilled spirit. This blend is passed through charcoal filtration to achieve a characteristic smoothness, and then aged for a period of at least one year. After ageing, Bacardi Superior is again charcoal filtered to produce a subtle, delicate rum that is clear in color, light in body and dry in flavor. Smooth with subtle aromas of almonds and tropical fruits, the finish is clean and balanced to the palate.
