    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise its confident 45% ABV and clear cask influence: woody oak wrapped in caramel and vanilla, with touches of tobacco and cocoa. Many find it smooth, balanced and versatile—enjoyed neat, on ice, or powering classics like an Old Cuban or Cuba Libre. A bestselling favorite with exceptional buyer confidence, though some note a slight alcoholic bite and a shorter finish.

    How is this rum rated?

    7.2/10 245 reviews

    Almost all Havana Club rums are overpriced in my opinion even if they taste good, but this one is much more price worthy than the 15yo. The nose is woody and smoky with an aroma of vanilla. At the palate and during the medium long finish it’s woody, spicy with some sweetness and flavors of fruits and vanilla.

    Trinkbar ist fast noch zu gut für den Mist, Aber er macht einen absolut geilen Cuba Libre !!

    For me in the Havana Club range, a really nicely balanced but still typically Cuban racy rum. Very pleasant smell, which is clearly more fruity than the taste. In the finish short but rough. From the price-performance ratio for me the best of the Havanas. And this was tried from 10 to 190 € some from the house Havana Club.

    Rhum au nez léger : bois et épices. Un belle couleur. En bouche, on découvre le bois, les épices, le fût, un côté herbal peut se découvrir, très légèrement. Un rhum sec et plutôt agréable mais rien d'extravagant
