"A good rum. A club havana that stands out from the classic reserva and 7-year-olds and demonstrates the distillery's talents. Unfortunately, higher end havanas cost too much for me to understand the true potential of the brand.Medium finish. Cocoa/chocolate notes mixed with vanilla and fleeting barrel. I don't understand why Spanish rums insist on lengthening them."

"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."

"nice round and also somewhat more complex Havana, easy to drink, nice pear and nougat chocolate note with some nut. definitely one of the best PLV Cubans from Havana Club. Alcohol could be slightly better integrated. But makes a really tasty old Cuban!"
