How does this rum taste?
Most praise it as a cheap, reliable Cuba Libre rum with easy caramel-vanilla notes; critics find it thin, sharp and boring neat. Consensus: basic but serviceable supermarket mixer.

The goal? To offer you, the rum connoisseur, a place where you can choose with confidence—without paperwork, detours, or expert jargon.








My evergreen, great for a nice long drink or in cocktails, but can also be drunk neat if you don't have a nice bar nearby or are out and about. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with it ;)
Parfait pour boire avec du coca en sortie
One of the better Havana Club rums. It's not a must-have, but it's still good. Tastes slightly nutty to me, but still just manageable. An ok rum if you compare it with the other Havanas.
I use this one for my Cuba libre. 4 cl Havana Club 1 cl lime juice 10 cl Coca Cola
