Havana Club Cuban Spiced
Most tasters land in "decent for a spiced" territory, with a couple of grumbles. What everyone agrees on is the orange: fresh peel and a bit of bitter orange, propped up by vanilla, clove and brown sugar. Several call it "smooth, not too sweet for a spiced rum." A few catch a medicinal, syrupy edge they don't love. Light at 35%, it shines in a rum and cola.

How does Havana Club Cuban Spiced taste?
Aggregated from 36 community reviews.
Orange-forward spiced rum, best in cola Well-liked as an easy, orange-and-clove spiced rum for mixing, especially rum and cola. Some taste an artificial, medicinal note that pulls their score down.

Review by Kevin Delano
Smooth, not to sweet for a spiced rum. Makes a great R&C!
Review by Smighty
Very fruitful one. The smell is funky and you can taste combination of orange and vanilla. The taste follows the smell. It is a really pleasant rum with long-lasting aftertaste. It is sweet, but not too much. Would recommend this one. I am not proficient enough to say if it is good to be mixed with other drinks but i would recommend to be drank solely as it is nice on its own.

Orange, cinnamon with peppery finish, smooth finish fun and cheap can be enjoyed neat, under 20 pounds well worth it
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
The nose has lots of freshly squeezed orange with a touch of clove and cola cubes. The palate keeps the orange with the clove not being too overpowering. It's sweet but not overly so. The finish has a subtle cappuccino note to it. One with a vanilla syrup and added sugar. Not bad for a spiced. On the sweet side as you'd imagine but nowhere near even diplomatico levels. Would work well with lemonade.

Hafenrundfahrt in Thessaloniki, gibt sogar Rum auf dem Schiff und zumindest einen neuen Punkt :) Das im Rum befindliche Eis ist erstmal im Meer gelandet :) Man, man... Wir haben hier einen spiced Rum, überwiegend Orange und Vanille in Nase und Gaumen, am Gaumen kommt noch etwas brauner Zucker hinzu. Ganz ok für einen spiced.7
