Feast your eyes upon Havana Club Añejo 7 Year Old, a wonderfully flavoursome Cuban rum that is no stranger to awards. Back when it was created, this was the first Havana Club expression that was intended for sipping neat rather than for using in cocktails and mixed drinks. Though saying that, if you think your cocktails could use an upgrade of rich, aged rum tastiness, this stuff is ace. We've been particular impressed when using it in place of a whiskey for Old Fashioned and Manhattan cocktails...
Sweet and buttery with intermingled notes of toffee, honeycomb and coffee, a little spice and dried peels with notes of orchard fruits and biscuits.
Full and rich with notes of cigar box, particularly the cedar wood thereof, guava and banana leaf with more toffee.
Fruity, creamy finish. Lots of complexity.

Having just tried this (a few times) in Cuba recently, I can say this is now definitely one of my favourite rums. Very similar in sweetness/toffee flavour to Appleton Estate.
Great sipping rum and very good for making premium cocktails/ drinks with.
To call this a "sipping rum" is very misleading. It simply is not good enough to be enjoyed neat. It is fine as a cocktail ingredient but, to be honest, there are much better rums available for lower prices. Mount Gay being a prime example - much more complexity to the flavour and much smoother. Again though, it's not a sipping rum.
I expected a good, decent aged rum. This was some surprise. Most excellent sipping rum and great in a daiquiri too.
havana rums are the finest
