Havana Club Iconica Gran Reserva (Limited Reserve Rum)
Oak, tobacco and soft caramel lead here — the woody, grown-up side of Cuban rum rather than anything fruity or sharp. Fifteen years have rounded it right off: creamy, mild, no edges at 40%, with a little cocoa and a sweetness that comes out most in the finish. Several owners call it their best bottle, though most note the price sits high.

How does Havana Club Iconica Gran Reserva (Limited Reserve Rum) taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Round, woody Cuban sipper with tobacco notes Too few ratings for a firm verdict, but owners here agree on one thing: round, dry-leaning and polished, a refined step up from Havana 7 — if you're happy paying for it.

New edition of the Havana 15. Same stuff as before, just in a new design. Still makes good drinks like old cuban, daiquiri, and co. Personally, I liked the old design a bit better. But for the money, it's still quite expensive.
Review by Oliver
Very inviting nose. On the palate, very easy-drinking and tasty – without any rough edges. Ideal for a relaxed evening. However, the price is on the higher end.
Review by Jakob Deiner
The nobler, more refined Havana Club 7 with pleasant wood/oak/cask notes, tobacco, a bit of cocoa, mild, slightly creamy. My absolute favorite among the non-fruity rums, unfortunately expensive. Drinks: - Neat: 5/5
Review by Felix
So far the most expensive rum I own and also the best so far. Is it justified to pay well over 100€? Probably not, but I would say if you can get the rum for around 100€, it might be worth a try. The rum is extremely smooth and very pleasant in the mouth, with no sharpness. It’s not too sweet and also shows a woody note. The finish is also very pleasant, and towards the end I find the sweetness of the fruits and caramel comes through strongest.
