A good buy especially if you're looking for a strong body rum. The characteristics of its flavor can be a bit overpowering. It is one of the highest quality among the lower spectrum of its kind.

I don't know why it's so higly rated (7.4/10). I give 5,5.

Beautiful reddish mahogany in color. Oak, fruits and sweet on the nose. Wow, this one attacks with some punch of alcohol and spices on palate. Very nice indeed. Good oak, dates, maybe little raisins and fruit flavors all the long way of after taste. I usually like sweet rums, but this is quite dry, but I still like it, go figure.

Насыщенный, сбалансированный и плотный ром. Первый нос - бурбонные ноты. Далее раскрывается тонами чернослива и фиников, посыпанными специями. Хорошо слышна выдержка в бочке.

Lekkere geur van vanille, eikenhout en kruiden. Mooie volle zoete smaak van vanille, eikenhout, gebrand suiker met een volle ronde afdronk die lang blijft hangen

Picked this bad boy up on my last fishing trip to Mexico and glad I did. A golden hued rum that looks and smells good in the glass. Smooth with a medley of flavors, wood, leather and Carmel. I find this rum dangerously smooth and very balanced between dry and sweet. The most pronounced aspect to me, is the aftertaste, which hangs on and begs you to pour another shot. Definitely recommended, real rating 8.5.

I have enjoyed the 7 year old for a while, and actually watching an old Conan O'Brien Show where he visits Cuba and Havana Club's distillery showcasing some rums that are not on the shelves here in Sweden, I decided to order the Club Selección de Maestros.
After two weeks it arrived. A slight bump up taste-wise. Nice bottle design.

This is the best HC rum I have tasted that is still being sold in normal shops. A true masterpiece.

The rating could be 7.5, this is not the my favourite, but it is very good :) This is not one, which I would sip in the nigths, but not bad for visitings :)
Sweetness -> 5/10
Strength -> 6.5/10

Average taste, interchangeable, ok for Mojitos
6
/10
out of 10
Edit: just had another sample, but now from a freshly opened bottle. It‘s still a 6, but now, the nose detects some hints of oak and maybe even caramel, while the palate detects intense spices and smoke.
Bit I still miss volume, body and aftertaste.
Notes from first sample:
Nose: a bit fruity, some hints of lime maybe
Palate: Certainly way better than the 3-Year, but still not very tasty: missed body, volume and aftertaste, but the bottle was already open for years. A bit harsh too.
Not the best choice to sip neat, but worked well in a Mojito.
