Pour this over a glass full of ice, squeeze in some lime, top with soda, and you've basically got the easiest banger of the night. Bacardi Carta Blanca is light, clean and quietly floral, the kind of rum that lets the lime and mint do their thing without shouting over them. It's the white rum a mojito or daiquiri was written for. Grab the 1L when the people are coming over and you don't want to run dry by 10pm.
Crystal clear in the glass, with a soft nose of orange blossom and a little vanilla and almond underneath. The first sip is gentle and smooth, more fruity than fiery, with hints of ripe banana, apricot and a fresh lime lift. It finishes dry and clean, no sticky sweetness hanging around, which is exactly why it plays so well with whatever you mix it with. Sip it neat and it's mellow, but this rum was really born to mingle.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it comes from
Bacardi started back in 1862 when Don Facundo Bacardi Masso cracked the code on a smoother, lighter rum, charcoal filtering it to strip out the rough edges. That little bat on the label has been there from the very start. These days the rum is made in Puerto Rico, where it's distilled from molasses, rested in American oak, then filtered for that clean, bright character. Family-owned and still going strong after more than 160 years.
