Bacardi Carta Negra is a superior dark Cuban rum, previously named Bacardi Black. This blended rum is made from sugar cane and molasses. But that thing what makes it so special is its production process with various techniques of distillation, fermentation and blending. Bacardi Carta Negra matured in heavily charred oak barrels, which give it an intense character. A fundamental innovation in production is filtration through charcoal, which perfectly removes impurities created during distillation.
This black rum taste perfectly neat on ice. Also it's great in the recipes of mixed drinks and cocktails such as Cuba Libre or Mai Tai.
And by the way: the Bacardi logo symbolises the black bat. It was said that black baats lived in the attic of the distillery and according to the legend, it brings happiness, health and cohesion in the family.
