Title: Cuba's Havana Club Blanco Rum:illegal in the states
Post by: johnniewalker on January 19, 2013, 04:30:09 AM
Up for sale is an unopened bottle of Cuba's state-run rum company Havana Club's Blanco rum. This stuff is literally impossible to get in the states w/the USA's trade embargo w/Cuba. Of course its the best white rum I've ever had, too (I'm sure many can attest to this). Its sweet...makes the best Mojitos and Pina Coladas...puts Bacardi to shame.
Anyways, this can be yours for http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/65usd.png

shipped anywhere in the US.
Thanks!

No but I can get it. If you have one in mind odds are I can get it. If not, I recommend Havana Club's Anejo 7 Anos

Havana Club Blanco is no longer available in Australia.  We have to buy Havana Club 3yo.  It's a mostly clear rum, but no blanco

So you can still get legit Havana Club but not the Blanco? How dumb is that? I know the 3 year you're talking about. Its good rum, but one for sipping-DEFINITELY not mixing (its too high-quality and think about a Mojito with spiced rum...ughhhh). The Blanco I always use for Mojitos (my favorite). That Cane Sugar grown in tropical Cuba paired with the century-old tradition of rum making in Cuba makes for a very smooth Mojito.
There are other, cheaper brands of Cuban state rum that come in Blanco. Can you get those?

We're getting the Havana 3yo at the same price as the Havana Blanco.

Virtually every bar I've seen make mojitos here only uses Havana.

In fact 2 doors down from my bottleshop is "The Rum Bar". Over 200 different rums on the shelf. These guys love their rum!

i'll take it. are you willing to ship first? What happens if it gets broken/seized?

Not really willing to ship first. I've shipped about 5 of these and done plenty of transactions on here, anyone can vouch for me. 1 broke one time. I re-shipped. I can refer you to past people I've shipped to and the buyer who I re-shipped to. Note too that the one that broke was the first I shipped-I've since learned how to package them.
