Notes
Looking for a few rum suggestions? Havana Club is a brand I disocvered while living in France and one that has been made in Cuba since 1908. While not available currently in the United States, if you do find it abroad, it's a great value for a great rum. For something that you can find more readlity available here in the states, we love Nicaragua's Flor de Caña and Mount Gay Eclipse. You won't be disappointed.
