    How does this rum taste?

    Reviewers praise its balanced, dark-chocolate-and-vanilla profile with woody oak, cocoa and gentle spice. The molasses character stands out, with alcohol well integrated and a smooth, mild feel. Opinions split on complexity and value—some find it character-light and question the high price or missing age statement, while others call it a perfectly balanced, complex Havana Club. With 14 RumX reviews, it’s a Cuban column‑still style many consider worth trying once.

    Though this is a costly glass it's well worth the money and you should try it at least once in your life. This bottling is released in a limited number every year so there is always a chance to taste it. A perfectly balanced and complex rum from Havana Club.

    for over 1000€ 0.5 liters of rum and then not even a proper age statement is a cheek. the thing is just a prestige object nothing more, the only thing that costs money here is the valuable bottle design. taste but not much better than pampero anniversario, millonario XO etc... for the money you could easily buy 15 single casks... pity! very pity!

    Hezké, do detailu vyladěné balení, které ovšem bohužel potvrzuje, že čím zajímavější lahev, tím méně zajímavý rum., kdy se v tomto případě nejedná o věc zcela nezajímavou, ovšem vzhledem k ceně bych čekal komplexnější kousek.

    Impressive packaging. Unfortunately, the rum contained disappoints. Very balanced and mild, but also quite characterless.
