World Rum Guide Review
Bacardi Carta Negra Rum is an accessible entry-level rum that is best served mixed with cola or ginger beer. Fruity on the nose, with notes of passionfruit, almonds, chocolate and molasses, Bacardi Carta Negra is rich and full-bodied on the palate, bringing flavours of molasses, coffee, vanilla and dark chocolate.  The finish is slightly bitter, with liquorice and spicy black pepper notes. - Paul Jackson, 2018
