Havana Club Barrel Proof

Te vroeg van deze fles geproefd, toen nog niet ‘volwassen’ genoeg. Wel al meteen onder de indruk van de smaak, krachtig en zwaar. Zou graag voor een herkansing gaan.

Aún tengo 2 de estas botellas, es un buen ron. Normalmente es lo que esperas de un ron cubano, fuerte y seco.

All of a sudden all my bad experiences of Havana Club rum are blown away. Unfortunately a bit too expensive...but anyway....

Smooth and sweet classic rum combined with barrel wood flavor.
Barrel proof has its name from the fact that it is bottled directly from the barrel.

El mismo procentaje que su "hermano". Con 45% de alcohol es suave. Tengo una botella de 1L en mi colección pero no la voy a abrir por si no la puedo conseguir.

I really enjoy that bottle. Great full flavor, very smooth, just at right level of sweetness. So easy to sip.

Suave En boca con notas a vainilla y frech Oak complicado conseguí le pero gracias al maestro ronero Miguel Fernández pudo ser posible

Good rum but not woth the price in my opinion. There are better for less money.

Unfortunately I will first apologise for my review. Having been a fan of the Havana 5 and 7 year varietys I purchased a bottle which is yet to be opened...8 years later.

Sampled in a bar on a fuzzy night.

8/10 to keep the average.

I have read a lot about this rare rum and then bought it from ebay (it is possible but difficult and expensive). What a moment when we opened box with three 1L bottles :) I have not opened it yet but found a bar with Barrel Proof on menu, quite a luck.

So to the review: colour, smell and taste is absolute delight. Have not yet tasted better rum. Toffee, oak, cinnamon. 45% means strong afterburn but not unpleasant. Want more! ;)
