Fijner rum voor de prijs stelt mij niet teleur.
Als je de portemonnee open trekt zijn er natuurlijk veel beteren te vinden maar het is een goede start van je rum collectie.

Fantastic mixer, can even be consumed straight up if you're up for it. I am however beyond that point.
Probably the bottle that made many of us look beyond the regular cuba libre.

I expected a soft and smooth rum. The true is that, its a rum with a lot of fine flavours, with a too strong bite. I prefer the Bacardi 8.

After being recommended this 7 year, I was disappointed when this rum didn't deliver on taste. Too harsh and confusing to pick up single flavours straight, but bearable with cola.

This is the golden boy rum to have for sipping (commercially available at a reasonable price) if you are a Cuban living abroad and don't get to travel to the island often. I really like the strong smell of the HC7. Like the taste as well although one still finds the harshness that characterizes most of the Cuban rums I have tasted/being able to afford. Such harshness sometimes makes it a non-sipper to citizens from other countries. What I cannot cope with is the cheap bottle cap. Its also not too sweet like the Demerara ED family but not a great value for ~33CAD in Ontario, Canada.
Great for mixing but other cheaper HCs will do the job as well while minimizing the damage to your wallet.

Pure alcohol, a bit too harsh for my taste/throat. Frankly speaking, I don't believe this rum is aged for 7 long years. My guess would be 7 weeks. Seven years in a wood, in Cuba's hot climate, would make it a wonderful, smooth-sipping drink. Just look at any bourbon, as a production reference.

meget skarp i smagen og meget sprittet. Ikke rigtig nogle noter og toner der får lov at trænge igennem

Decent legs, good tropical aroma with some heat coming through. Soft and semi-smooth on the palate with some wood to finish.

the best cuba libre you can make is with the havana club 7.
Very smooth and sweet. Nice in the summertime!

I tried it with water and a couple of ice cubes. It was smooth enough but didn't have the nice flavor of the Appletons and El Dorado rums I have tried.
