Havana Club Cuban Smoky
One member summed it up neatly: "little to no smoky notes" for a rum aged in Islay whisky casks. Expect light caramel, vanilla and brown sugar with a faint peat wisp and a whisky edge. Easy and mild — a few found it too tired and thin neat, but it wakes up in a rum and cola or with ginger beer and lime.

Went to the local guy yesterday just bacause he's just around the corner, almost. This is definitely a mixer and the Islay cask is very clear with its smoky/peated notes. Pure it didn't really kick off and I'm not an "on the rocks" kind of guy. Where it performed well was in a Rum'n'cola and mixed with a bit of ginger beer and a lime.

Little to no smoky notes from the extra ageing in islay whisky casks
Review by Anonymous
Light and very easy to drink (doesn’t slow you down). Lots of caramel, hints of smoke, round wood, lots of vanilla and some cream, brown sugar, some minor hints of peat.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Yes, it's more drinkable neat than its brothers "Especial" and "Reserva", precisely because of the smoky note, which suits the rum well (you can save yourself the accompanying cigar 😎). A pleasant, mild rum, but for me it's still too tired and lackluster.
Review by zabo
I was also allowed to try this one in the duty-free store when I left Tunisia, but unfortunately it wasn't my cup of tea either. For me, it tastes a lot like whisky, which is not my thing at all. It leaves an unpleasant memory
