Aroma visualization from community tastings
Havana Club Añejo Reserva
One member calls it "much better than the regular Havana Club," and a few even rank it above the 7-year. That's the honest ceiling here: a light, dry Cuban column-still rum with woody, earthy notes, a touch of dried fruit and a fairly alcoholic edge. Nobody's saving it for a tasting glass, but several found it a fine, cheap mixer.

Review by Mirko Frosini 🇮🇪
Nothing to say except that it should be avoided for pretentious tasting. It's fine for cocktails or a lighthearted drink at the bar.
Review by Steve Heuser
Much better than the regular Havan Club.

Zum Mixen in Ordnung.
Review by Patrik Onderka
Well, it was a salvation on our sail around Lefkada in Greece. As there are not many rums available in marines. From unknown reasons, scotches, gins and whiskies heavily dominate in Greece. On the other hand, I cannot complain for 29 euros. It was the last bottle of the kind, likely in a discount.

Eignet sich zum Mixen. Habe diesen Rum günstig erworben. Ein weiterer Havana Club für meine Sammlung.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Slightly milder than the pungent Especial (RX42), but also nothing that you absolutely have to have tasted. For me, not even suitable for Cuba Libre.
