About this bottle

Bacardí's Maestro de Ron is a tribute to the succession of master blenders at the distillery, originating from its time in Cuba. Current Master Blender Manuel Jorge Cutillas and fellow "maestros" developed this rum through a dual-aging method: rums aged for at least one year are combined and then matured for an additional three months in white oak before being filtered. The label features a biplane over a tropical scene, honoring Bacardí's invitation to Americans to drink rum legally in Cuba during Prohibition.

Becky Stokes 3.5

A medium-bodied blended rum from Puerto Rico, created with a double aging method. Rums aged at least one year are combined and then returned to white oak barrels for an extra three months, creating a smooth taste with hints of vanilla, caramel, and butterscotch for a complex finish. January 2016 / June 2017

Marsha Maddox 2.0

It has a hint of tropical fruit and fennel, but like Superior, it's still dry and heavily alcoholic. For just one dollar more, though, I'd choose this over Superior any day. $29 in Ontario.

Peyton Osborn 0.5

Harsh solvent notes. No improvement over standard Bacardi.

Coleen Mohr 2.0

Not the best. Perhaps good for budget-friendly mixed drinks?

Atticus Whelan 3.8

Smooth, mild, and invigorating perfect for cocktails

Irving Waiters 3.0

A white rum that left no impression after drinking... mmmm.
