Dry and light, Havana Club 3 ans is the perfect rum for mojitos.
Havana Club 3 ans has been aged in white oak casks. The Maestros Roneros, the Cuban cellar masters, blend the different casks to maintain consistent quality. It is finally filtered to become a white rum again, retaining the body and aromas acquired during aging, and bottled.

Nico's tasting notes
In brief: light - fruity - tangy - dry
The nose immediately takes us into familiar territory: a fruity rum, with very little wood and enough alcohol to appear in a festive cocktail. Although it's classified as a light rum, there's no mistaking its nature and confusing it with any other white spirit: it is indeed a rum.
A little opening will bring out tangy, floral aromas, between lychee and heady tropical flowers. Whatever happens, it remains very smooth and docile.
On the palate, the rum swirls into thousands of fiery droplets. The alcohol takes effect and refreshes the mouth. The aromas are discreet and rather fine, with the freshness of a redcurrant or raspberry still firm.
The finish leaves a light, rather dry rum taste that quickly fades.
"A classic for Mojitos and other light cocktails, a versatile rum that won't overpower..."
