Bacardi Facundo Eximo
The Bacardi name on the label sets low expectations, and this quietly beats them. It's a soft, round column-still sipper: vanilla, caramel and toasted oak up front, with hints of coconut, spice and dried fruit underneath. Several tasters call it smooth and easy; a few also note it's a touch thin and fades fast, leaving mostly honeyed candy sweetness.

Aggregated from 41 community reviews.
Smooth, sweet vanilla-caramel easy sipper Most find it pleasant and well-made — smooth vanilla, caramel and gentle wood spice. The common gripe: it's a bit thin and sweet, and the finish disappears quickly.

Review by abaker-rum
Just like the Facundo Exquisito this rum is very smooth throughout. It is has caramel and vanilla throughout the nose an palate with wood and spice added to the palate and the finish. This rum is not quite as good as the Exquisito from Facundo, but is still a very good rum.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,5:On the nose, it is both light and caramelized, with familiar notes of vanilla, fruits, toasted oak and toasted spices. The toasted oak gives off a few hints of coconut, which become increasingly roasted, to the point of touching coffee. With a little air, the rum takes on body and roundness. The American oak unfurls all its deliciousness of coconut, vanilla, tobacco and soft wood, some anise. A touch of marzipan completes the picture and sets the gourmet character, despite a slight return of roasted coffee. 8,6:On the palate, the attack is as charming as the nose, with an extremely smooth, velvety entry, some fruity notes, blueberry for an example.This roundness inhibits the more full-bodied aspects of wood and spice, like some anise, leaving only the sweetness of vanilla and coconut milk.Iodine note sometimes comes vaguely, the wood is charred, a bit smoky and there is a very pleasant honey notes after some rest. 8,4:The finish is a little roasted, with a hint of blond tobacco smoke. Really a great summer sipper! 👌
Review by Timo Groeger
A slightly better Bacardi for once. Beautiful nose consisting of vanilla, chocolate and wood. Similar on the palate, with a hint of caramel for me. The alcohol is well integrated. You can give it a try.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I think this rum will surprise most rum drinkers because its really good. Very similar in taste to the Reserva Limitada. The nose is fruity and with a lot of spices. In the back i can find wine, wood and nuts. The palate sets off very spicy but it quickly settles and then you get a lot of fruit and then some wood, honey and bourbon. A nicely balanced and full bodied rum. The finish is medium to long. Again spicy, lightly sweet and fruity with wood and pepper.

Review by cigares
A nose of vanilla and barley sugar, wood and candy. The beginning of the palate is too sweet, diluted and the middle is thin. The finish is short and soon all that's left is a taste of honey candy. A well-made rum, easy to drink, but not very interesting for all that. The empty glass reveals some well-integrated wood.

Review by Tim
This rum smells delicious, very pleasant profile of caramel, fruit and wood with some chocolate. In the mouth, although very mild and soft, but rather thin, too round and sweet. The taste also fades quickly. A not so cheap rum for advanced and beginners.
