Rum is an essential part of Cuban culture, shaped by the country’s climate, geography, history and people. As its finest expression, the Havana Club range represents this rich heritage. Produced by Maestros del Ron Cubano following traditional Cuban rum making methods, the Havana Club rum embodies the spirit of Cuba, enjoyed by Cantineros and rum drinkers around the world to the rhythm of the best Cuban music.
Havana Club Añejo Especial offers a richly layered tasting experience, perfect for those who appreciate the nuance of aged rums. The nose is delightfully complex, blending sweet notes of honey and vanilla cream with the earthy richness of cinnamon, cedar, and sandalwood. On the palate, it presents a smooth and full texture with flavours of caramel, spiced oak, and manuka honey, complemented by a subtle cinnamon warmth. The finish is long and bittersweet, marked by lingering notes of citrus and vanilla that balance the sweetness with a refined sharpness. This premium golden rum combines old and young rums, resulting in a deeply flavourful and aromatic profile that enhances both neat sipping and cocktail mixology.
