Again a rum that I often use in cocktails, some classic and some maniacal creations. If you want a versatile rum then these lower cost Havana's are really 'go to' rums. They are also great learning tools on how subtle differences in flavour profile make a good deal of difference to a cocktail.

Its just ethanol-tea-water. This is not great rum but it is drinkable after a few sips. I mean, there is always worse but a 6.0??? No way in heavens.

I always have a weak spot for this rum. It's a nice and easy drink.

Good for mix with that value. If you want some good not special rum for mix I would reccomend that one.

I was hoping for more. It is just fair to ok. Good in a pinch or for a mixer.

I have bought a few of Havana Club Anejo Clasico. It's a very good aged mixer. Quintessential rum, great in mixed drinks.

Made very nice Cuba libres with this one. Also enjoyed it neat. However, I have moved on.

This is probably the minimum quality for sipping. It is good for cocktails but it might be a beginner's rum to decide if sipping rum is your thing.

I don't like it neat but it's a nice rum for cocktails

The benchmark for Cuba Libre in my opinion. Straight I wouldn't recommend it, the alcohol sting is overwhelming, but it's not an unpleasant experience.
