Actually, I thing this is a great rum to mix. Its definitely too strong to take shots with but will get you nice and tight quickly. Personally, I like to mix it with the pre-mixed bacardi beverages that you find in th abc or liquor stores. Mix one and a half shots with a regular glass of the pre-mixed stuff and its real nice and definitely not overbearing ... I'm definitely a fan!!

This is a good rum for expierienced alcoholics who seek to "get there fast". It goes well with huffing gasoline. It is not intended for children or other living things. If your goldfish dies and you cannot yet part with it, this would be a good formula to preserve it. As for flavor or taste, if you ask, this is not the rum for you.

This stuff is AWESOME!! I have a high tolerance, and 3 shots of this lets me have a buzz without a hangover. And to all the guys who think that girls can't handle it, BS. I'm a chic. I'm 27. And I don't get loose on it, either. Lots of fun and great for drinking games...if you can last ;)

Be a man and get a bottle 4 shots and most girls start takin there cloths off.....end off story yull be too drunk to care about tast and smell stop being sour pusses get on a real man level

I've had better rums. But if you want to get drunk for cheap than have at it

For those who want to get hammered! No redeeming value for any other purpose. Usually done in "shots" by those who are already drunk. Leads to violent "hurling" in the parking lot or bathroom. Bad idea all around!

Can be used as a great mixer if used moderatley. However, this stuff packs a wallop! I have never seen a girl act crazier than when she drinks this, and guys it aint the good crazy. I am talking drama, B.S., vomit, just...ugh. let her drink tequila if she is feeling brave.

Good for Flaming Dr. Peppers and Flaming Mai Tais, but I wouldn't use it for much else.

Don't even kid yourself you don't drink this stuff for the taste. However it is a good value considering the strength. Pay like $25 for a fifth. That fifth should last you awhile. Well maybe not if you have extremely high tolerance.

151 is really a strong rum. It had that grain alcohol taste, which is never a good thing. I just remember drinking this and having a bad night. It is just too strong to even be cut by mixing it.

Bacardi 151 does a good job of being what it is supposed to be. It is good for "flaming" drinks because it will burn off for a show. Otherwise, it is just an extremely strong rum and not very sweet. I do not like how it tastes for the types of drinks that I personally will consume with rum in them.

ok to start off with 151 is only good for flaming shots it was never meant for straight consumption. For the people who think this goes down smooth is completly absurd the only thing better than this is Potters Monarch and McCormicks. If your total goal in life is just to get completly hammard yes drink the cheap shit, but thats not what alcohol is made for. In total reality bacardi is something that people who appriciate rum will never drink, and if they do they would do at least bacardi 8 year.

Good for getting very drunk, very fast. Not so good for taste.

Let's see, started the night off with regular rum, got pretty drunk and took two shots of 151. Blacked out and passed out in the bathroom floor. After I got sick... Next time I shall definitely mix it with something xD

Gut Rut. You want real overproof rum, try Wray and Nephew (real Jamaican). Much better than this acrid solvent.

I would say if you are a liquor afficianado who likes to sample the boquet of a rum and such, this is definitely not for you. I will say though that I never found it to be that harsh or poor tasting, the cheap american made vodkas I have had are much worse. Likewise, this is not for lightweights who are better off with beer. I've seen someone get blind drunk off of two capfuls of this. When I was a gorilla alky, I used to love drink this stuff, but then again, my capacity for alcohol was world class at the time. I don't think I would try to drink the stuff now, I'm not interested in getting blind drunk and numbed up anymore.

P.S. You have to have a built up alcohol tolerance (a very strong one) to drink this stuff without hurting yourself. This stuff can kill you, not for amateurs.

Not very smooth, burnt worse than the other 151 proof rum. But still overall good stuff

This is a drink that you should look carefully at before buying. It's taste isn't quite there. Much too strong to just drink straight, I would give this 1-2 stars for sipping/taste, but 4-5 stars for mixing. This is undoubtably the best mixing rum for your buck. It's the same proof as the lower proof Everclear (they have 190 proof, and 151 proof versions, I believe) so you can get an idea of the strength of it.Personally, in retrospect, I would have chosen something else to buy with the money I spent on this.

The soul purpose of this is to get F**KED UP! If thats all you want from rum then you are not better than the Euro bums that drink rotgut vodka straight from the bottle. Do the world a favor, just drink a couple bottles of everclear and make yourself go blind. If you are thinking...thats not me, I use it to lace fruit punch to get chicks drunk. Well, if you have to get them that drunk, the world probably doesn't want you having sex and possible spilling your genes into the next generation.

love it gets me fucked up and FAST just the way i like it because i can do shots in the car go into the club before it hits me and be fuzzy all night saves money!

man i love this drink it goes down so smooth and this shits tight aint even playin

  Between $20 and $30 for a fifth of 75.5% (151 proof) alcohol.  Before you start chugging this stuff like those idiots on youtube, sit down and conciously recognize the power of Bacardi 151.  It has nearly twice the alcohol content of your run-of-the-mill liquors, which typically have 40% alcohol by volume.  What does this mean?  It means drink half of what you normally do.  Warnings aside, this stuff is grand.  If you shoot it, the first shot is the hardest.  Ethanol fumes linger in your mouth, nose, and throat for about 20 seconds.  If not chased, it will burn all the way down and keep burning in your stomach.  Mixing it and diluting it are decent options, because you can weaken it to regular liquor strength, or mix with soda or whatev.  I don't know where its amber color comes from, they don't really say, so it's assumed it's been aged slightly.  There are also a dozen flammable warnings on it, nice

five stars: versatile, inexpensive, efficient

Never drink beer before liquor.. Always liquor before beer. He's a good poem


"Liquor before beer, you're in the clear.
Beer before liquor, never been sicker."

Anyways, bacardi 151 is good shit and awesome for a good night.

WAPAK.... after drinking my 5th shot of 151. Damn! I'm all black-out! hahaha.

alright you guys our all pussy's i beer bonged 6 shots and with a beer, ya i threw up but best thing ever, o and that flaming shot stuff a couple of you mentioned is not a death wish but will burn your facial hair

haha 151. gooood times. it burns like hell but then ya night picks up. word of warning dont drink straight out of the bottle.

It doesn't taste too bad, but be careful with this one. If you're not paying attention to how much you're drinking, you'll be in bad shape pretty quickly.

Good for lighting things on fire

Is there really any reason to drink something over 70-90 proof if your intended goal is not to get plastered? There are many much pricier and smoother rums but those that I've tried have been in the 70-90 proof category. 151 is good for its intended purpose and when younger mixing this with yukon jack lighting it on fire and dropping it in a beer it went down like Dr. Pepper. Of course it tastes like rubbing alcohol straight but if mixed properly it can be alot of fun. If you want a smooth night of sipping or entertaining then you shouldn't have bought this stuff unless you're 'the guy' that uses it for date rape. P.S. Nobody likes that guy...and learning how to make good mixes for your friends will put you in the spotlight and get you much farther. Everybody likes that guy.

Equally the best and worst night of my life.
Great stuff.
Have fun.

Bacardi 151 is a drink worth while.. Personally I like to mix it with coke and it taste like hazelnut.

Bacardi 151 is a drink for experienced drinkers. Don't flame it, what a waste! Have a few beers first and then drink it , but not in shots, it hits you too hard and you will make a fool of yourself. Drink it slowly, it creeps up and then gets you fucked. It seems to get you deep down drunk, so dont plan on doing anything the next day, you may still be pissed. Good with a high ball lemonade or lemon lime (hides the taste enough to drink, but not enough let you drink it too quickly). Cheers!

If you arrive at a function stone, cold sober, and everyone has a head start, go to this stuff and you soon will catch up.

To all of the 1-star raters... This is a fantastic alcohol and you can't say it is "teh suckz" just because you were an idiot and drank enough to tranquilize a horse. Don't do shots of it, its not a shot-type liquor. Try it with some coke or Dr. Pepper, take it easy and you'll have a good time.

I enjoy every minute of drinking 151 rum.It works very quickly just the way I like it.Every time I drink low proof liquor or beer I end up getting a nasty headache.Yeah it does burn going down but that is half the fun.If your not in the mood to get drunk just mix it with something.As long as you know when to quit you will be allright.   

bacardi 151 is the shiiiiiit i had it for the prom after parties and god damn me and 5 other people crushed it and got ------ up that nite was proly one of the most entertaining nites i've had, and it ------ up 5 people

For starters I usually just drink beer for the night and relax. My friend took me to a club that had some sort of stage show on my 21st. After they found out that it was my birthday, I was pulled on stage and handed a "on the rocks" glass full of hard alcohol. I was told to "just shoot it!" I'll be damned if I didn't down that in a matter of seconds. I had a hell of a coughing fit and they thought I was about to blow my top. They then laughed and told me that I just downed "151". For the most part they were surprised that I held it down. It was definitely rough going down, but it got me pretty plastered fast. I haven't had a hangover yet that involved throwing up or a headache. Maybe I haven't found something strong enough to totally kick my ass. This drink is definitely something worth picking up though.

       IF YOU HAVE A DEATH WISH.. 

                                   THIS IS YOUR DRINK.

I HAD IT YESTURDAY MORNING. THE TASTE IS SO DISCUSTING.. THE SMELL IS STRAIGHT UP NAUSIATING.. AFTER 4 SHOTS I PASSED OUT AND WOKE UP AT MY HOMEGIRLS HOUSE IN DIFFERENT CLOTHES ALL CLEAN AND STUFF; APPARENTLY I THREW UP ALL OVER MYSELF ABOUT 5 TIMES AND SHE GAVE ME A SHOWER.. HAHA SCARY I KNOW... AND I FELL ON MY FACE ENOUGH TIMES TO HAVE IT SORE EVERYWHERE.. IN TOTAL TODAY I THREW UP 10 TIMES. I CAN'T EVEN KEEP WATER DOWN. SCARY. I DONT EVEN REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED BUT I KNOW I WOKE UP WITH A HICKIE ON MY NECK.. IM STILL KINDA PISSED THEY DIDNT TAKE ME TO THE HOSPITAL.

ILL NEVER DRINK ALOCHAL AGAIN I RATHER CUT MY LEG OFF AND THROW IT IN THE RIVER.

It (suprisingly) has a really decent white rum flavor to it while having a potency somewhere akin to everclear or golden grain.

Ok let me just say when I drink this is my favorite stuff. Mixes great with PINEAPPLE JUICE AND MALIBU RUM. I'm not one to enjoy getting so completely belligerent where I dont remember anything the next morning, but if your looking to get fucked up then this is the drink for you... first time I had it I didnt remember any of the night but from what I heard, I had a hell of a time.

dammit i took 4 chugs straight out the bottle an i felt faded ass hell!!! but i was still conscious. its trippy cause i dont remember anything like 30 minutes after the last chug!! i'm telling u that stuff creeps up on u and it will have u straight gone for the night!!! GOTTA LOVE IT!!!

Come to think of it, the last time I drank this poison I *was* a kid trying to get drunk quick. It probably worked, because my memory of the night ends there.

Some bastard slipped me a shot of this rubbing alcohol once. It sucked.

I thought it was especially harsh, but I guess that is the point of the high alcohol content. Overall, though, I thought it would be better considering its price relative to cheaper brands.

I feel very ripped off. honestly i baught bacardi 151 with the intention of getting fucked up, i didnt care if it was nasty i jsut wanted to have a bottle of liquer that would last me, and i went through half this bottle and didnt feel ANYTHING, im not trying to gloat cause i am seriously pissed i wasted money on that shit, i am typing this with half a bottle of 151 in me and i dont feel shit, i baught it and drank most of it my buddies drank the rest and are unconcious and i am just dissapointed, im sticking to high proof vodka, cause this is over priced porta poty water

IM GETTIN CRUNK OFF THIS HERE LIQUOR TONIGHT BITCHES.

Pooched a bottle of this for the first time last night. it is decent stuff but I had expected a better bang for my buck, I mean sure I am a heavy heavy drinker but this is supposed to be almost twice as strong as normal whiskey 75.5%? sheesh I took 30mgs of diazepam after consuming a bottle of this stuff and still managed to stay up 3 more hours and remember the whole night. Drink a fifth of some decent whiskey and I'm out like a light, In my opinion at $43 a bottle here its not worth it. get 2 bottles of a good whiskey for that price instead and actually get "drunk".

tried some last night. a lil too much to be as drunk as i was, had some captain morgan parrot bay (half a fifth) then tried it, smelled wierd, tasted alright, but a word to the wise, if u dont have a high tolerance, dont drink. it burns like a bitch all the way down. u feel ur stomach warm up. by the 4th shot in 20 minutes, i stopped cuz i didnt think it would be good for me to have much more, an ER trip wouldnt be too much fun. its definitely strong shit. evidently i got my phone out, cuz this morning i woke up and listened to all the recordings i had made, i found it to be true that there are 95 stars in the sky lol. itll definitely kick your ass. not for beginners.

For all those so-called 'Cultured Connesuirs or Rum and Other Beverages' out there. Pull ya finger out of your ass. This drink is not bad for what it is. It is designed as a mixer, a power shot and a potent white rum that is set to appeal to certain demographics of consumers - and by the result of the comments below, it looks like it is doing a marvelous job of just that. So open up your small little minds and try and see things for what they really are. Now, MY opinion, appart from saying it achieves what is sets out to achieve, is that I quite enjoy watching other people drink it and myself partake in an occassional shot though never more then a couple in an evening due to my alcohol tollerance level.

Honestly people dont know what the are talking about...the guy at the bottom that said his buddy had 15 shots...you would be dead. This stuff tastes like ass and doesnt need anything but to be poured down the drain. stick with beer
