Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Though this is a costly glass it's well worth the money and you should try it at least once in your life. This bottling is released in a limited number every year so there is always a chance to taste it. A perfectly balanced and complex rum from Havana Club.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
for over 1000€ 0.5 liters of rum and then not even a proper age statement is a cheek. the thing is just a prestige object nothing more, the only thing that costs money here is the valuable bottle design. taste but not much better than pampero anniversario, millonario XO etc... for the money you could easily buy 15 single casks... pity! very pity!
Review by Filip Šikula
Hezké, do detailu vyladěné balení, které ovšem bohužel potvrzuje, že čím zajímavější lahev, tím méně zajímavý rum., kdy se v tomto případě nejedná o věc zcela nezajímavou, ovšem vzhledem k ceně bych čekal komplexnější kousek.
Review by Oliver
Impressive packaging. Unfortunately, the rum contained disappoints. Very balanced and mild, but also quite characterless.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Molases is the most significalbpart of the taste. IMHO it tastes like typical Guayana without body
