Havana Club Selección de Maestros

Only had it once, so I will not (can not) elaborate too much on this one. But I remember thinking it was a very sophisticated sipper. It might be the best Cuban in its price class.

Pur ist er mir ein wenig zu scharf, der Geschmack geht in Richtung Kaffee, Tabak und Holz, leider dominiert die schärfe. Gemischt mit Cola schmeckt er sehr lecker, jedoch ist der Rum viel zu teuer zum Mischen.

For quite a while I was a bit hesistant to try this rum due the mixed reviews I've seen. Seems this rum is a bit of a hit or mis depending on your palate.
The very positive review of TheFatRumPirate eventually convinced me to order a bottle.
Was expecting a entry level sipper, but this is much more than that!
I pick up mostly some citrus and oak, not much sweetness, and a nice gentle burn delivered by the 45%ABV.

I liked it, but not right away. Comes on too strong, hits you with the alcohol. And then, after a while, the real taste comes through. Even being partial to sweeter rums I can appreciate its complexity. I would pour this rum and let it stand for a while before tasting. Or have it on the rocks.

Was excited on a recent visit to Cuba to try the new rums available. Honestly could tell the difference from the 7 year. Was it good, yes, but at that price, i would reach for the Santiago de Cuba. Easily disappears in a mixed drink.

Its not the best rum, but its plesant to sip. Doesn`t have that wow factor. Still a decent rum though.

Can be mixing and sipping.....and yes is spectacular but you need to have more than one neat glass to appreciate the effort Havana Club has put into this blend .

In the beginning a strong alcohol-taste wich I had to get used to. Later I started to appreciate it more and more. Almost an 8 but I want to save higher rating for the more premium rums I'm about to taste!
