Description

Havana Club A?ejo 7 A?os Skepta (70cl / 40%) is a smooth, seven?year?old Cuban rum developed in collaboration with the UK rapper Skepta, blending traditional Havana Club distilling with a contemporary edge. It opens with soft caramel, brown sugar and gentle molasses, overlaid with hints of dried banana, toasted oak and a whisper of baking spice. On the palate it is rounded and approachable, with waves of honeyed sweetness, vanilla, light fruit and a mild warmth that lets the 40% ABV remain easy?going. The finish is medium?length, with lingering sweetness and a faint woody glow. This rum works well neat, with ice or in simple highballs, making it a versatile after?dinner pour. Pair it with a Dunhill White Spot Amber Root or Dunhill White Spot Cumberland, Dunhill White Spot Sidecar Case (10s) Zig?Zag Gawith Hoggarth Brown House, Edwin Jagger silvertip lather, Wilsons Snuff Red M., and a Davidoff Petit Corona or a medium?bodied Nicaraguan puro to let its honeyed, caramel?like sweetness echo the cigar?s cream and mild spice.
