I'm sure part of the my enjoyment of Havana Club was the thrill of acquiring it...had to wait for friends to come back from a cruise or such. But I still really found it to be a great mix with Coke. Rum and Coke is my go-to cocktail, and using Havana Club was definitely more interesting of a flavor than just plain ole Bacardi.

Ok straight but pretty sharp. Mush better mixed. A bit overpriced for what you get. There are better options out there. I would rate this higher if it were cheaper.

I heard a lot about this rum, friend brought me a bottle back from Cuba so nicely priced, I expected a lot, but couldn't see what the fuss was all about...shame!

I get a couple of bottles of this whenever I'm in the Caribbean. It's a decent rum and I like the excitement of getting it home!

I kdyz v posledni dobe hodne vyhledavam kubanske rumy, 7 leta havana me hodne zklamala. Pri cene skoro 700 kc rum nenabizi skoro nic. Nevyrazna vune, je hodne citit alkohol, na pozadi trocha vune kuze a tabaku. Pred ochutnanim doporucuji aspon 20 monut nechat odstat ve sklenici, zmirni se tak vyrazna alkoholova pachut a zapach. Chut neni spatna, ale zajemcum o kubansky rum radeji doporucim znacku Mulata, je vyrazne jemnejsi a chutove daleko vyraznejsi.

Ok to mix, comparable in quality with the anejo special.

Havana club 7-years is a classic, premium, commercial rum and I admit that it was the one that made me a rum lover. If you are a beginner you are going to like it or even love it, but when you 'll start exploring new rum tasted and qualities you will eventually demystify it. I still like its heavy tobacco- woody notes though.

Colour: caramel
Aroma: tobacco and woody.
Flavour: balanced.
Taste: Massive tobacco and woody taste accompanied by some strong alcoholic tones.

A great rum to start. Also, in the begining it will pose a useful base of comparison. What it misses is the sweet aftertaste. I prefer it in cocktails (it is indeed great in cocktails), as I do not enjoy sipping it in any way.

Tips: If you choose to sip it, accompany it with fried banana slices to balance its lack of sweetness and a medium-strong, preferably cuban, cigar.

This is a beauty.
A lot of people will be tending to underrate this rum, just because it's from a "mainstream" brand (people will Always do that, wich is silly), but that will be a mistake.
Yes, it is from a big brand and yes, it's very mainstream. Still that does not mean they can't make a good rum.

Because when you get this not knowing what you get, it will seduce you. Just let it happen, let yourself be seduced by this sexy rum and you will have a great night.

The nose is just amazing, one of the best in this prince range. The tast can't follow up on that great nose, but is still very good for such a rum. A bottle will not last long...

Neben dem Cola und für Cocktail üblichen 3jährigen geht hier schon mehr. Trinken ihn gern mit Kaffee und vieel Eis. (V1.0.)

Very nice aroma with a smooth beginning ands smooth finish with a nice burn in the middle. We might soon be able to get this product in the USA, and maybe Cuba will soon have Coke again but I put 2 and 2 together and Had a Cuba Libre with a Mexican Coke while vacationing on the gulf. Muy Bien ! BTW the real cane sugar Coca-Cola made a pleasant mixer far less syrupy than American Corn Syrup Coke. I believe I will only stock imported Coke on my bar from now on.
