Bacardi Oro Gold Rum 75cl
AED 45.00
Gold rum that keeps cocktails tasting like rum, not sugar. Born in Puerto Rico, this one leans into toasted vanilla, caramel, and a little oak, so your Cuba Libre and Rum & Ginger don’t fall flat. A proper “house rum” for mojitos, daiquiris, and easy mixes when you want flavour without fuss!

Gold rum that makes your go-to mixes taste fuller, warmer, and way more put-together.
This Puerto Rican classic is built for cocktail nights, not trophy shelves. Think light oak, caramel, and vanilla-led richness that shows up in a Cuba Libre, plays nice with ginger ale, and keeps a daiquiri from tasting thin. It’s the kind of rum you can reach for without overthinking, and still feel like you made a smart call.
- Nose: Toasted vanilla, caramel, banana bread, a hint of citrus peel and fresh-cut oak
- Taste: Toffee and browned sugar up front, then baking spice, mellow oak, and a touch of dried fruit
- Finish: Warm vanilla and light spice, with a gentle oaky fade that keeps the next sip tempting
Why it deserves a permanent spot in your home bar, it behaves. It doesn’t bully your mixers, it lifts them. Cola tastes rounder and less one-note, ginger beer gets a cosy spice boost, and citrus in a daiquiri pops without turning sharp.
It’s also a great “gateway” rum for anyone moving past white rum, but not ready for the heavy, molasses-dark stuff. You get colour and character from oak ageing, without the sticky, syrupy vibe some darker styles bring.
Cocktail hits it nails: Cuba Libre, Rum & Ginger, Daiquiri, Mojito, Piña Colada, and anything that wants a vanilla-caramel backbone with a little oak in the corners.
If you’re building a small rum lineup, this is your reliable middle ground. Lighter than dark rum, richer than white rum, and flexible enough to cover most classic rum cocktails without sending you back to the store.
Fun Fact: Bacardi started in Cuba in 1862, and the brand’s bat logo came from fruit bats that lived in the first distillery’s rafters.
