Havana Club 7-Year Rum is distilled from fermented molasses and aged in charred white oak barrels for seven years.
Havana Club rum is still made in Cuba - where the company was founded by José Arechabala in 1878 and then nationalized in 1959 after the Cuban Revolution. Havana Club is now jointly owned by Pernod Ricard and the Cuban government.

Cheap doesn't mean bad or low quality. Many people rate stuff without concerning the price. It has a bit of everything that rum should have on the palate. Nothing special for the aroma. And not much depth it provides. Used to have more thickness though, but nowadays...It only costs you 15$. Diplomatico has more roundness and richness because of added sugar. I believe you would have the same when you add sugar into this one.

It tastes like a party rum and it`s not great in my opinion.

Nice oaky taste, sweet and smooth on the palate, but a boozy aftertaste which is kind of heavy

great to pump up the taste of a mojito over a clear rum

Heavily marketed, always on offer, but definitely a class above most cheap mainstream brands. Absolutely gorgeous with coke, really not bad to sip. Smooth and lovely.

Honestly, I have tried many rums, and this one gathers the best qualities of a great rum for a good price. Very equilibrated in terms of flavor.

Really nice. Molasses forward flavor. Tastes like 'tapa de dulce'. Needs a little more age to smooth out, but such a great flavor.

Ok, first I will apologize for the use of that much-scorned descriptor: "Smooth". However, I was duly impressed at how effortlessly this just slid in as I drank it. Now, that shouldn't be surprising since it is only 80 proof, nevertheless, this really stood out, and likely because lower proof spirits often come across as watery and thin. Not this rum! I'm not yet adept at going into particulars in terms of specific tasting notes, but I will say that this is quite a delicious, light rum, though it's flavour is somewhat understated. It didn't knock my socks off with bold flavours, but it was something that I could just keep sipping and sipping - truly dangerous.
Just for added info: I'm primarily a whisk(e)y drinker, though I have begun to branch out to tequila, rum, cachaca, and gin. The rums I have tried and enjoyed so far are Mount Gay XO and Rhum Vieux Labbé 3 stars, as well as Soul Cachaca.
