Nothing Compares To Havana Club

Authentic Cuban rum Havana Club is teaming up with legendary Soho restaurant Kettner’s to launch ‘Nothing Compares to Havana’ - a journey through the story and production of Havana Club, Cuban cocktails and Cuban Music. This immersive experience will run for a limited period only - from the 10th - 13th September.

Spread over the entire second floor of the renowned London restaurant; this informative and fun adventure will allow rum enthusiasts and novices alike to enjoy and learn more about Havana Club. There will also be an opportunity to learn about how the rum is made and get a flavour for Cuban culture, along with a specially designed Cuban tasting menu, created by Kettner’s head chef Yosef Edri.

The journey will start with a brief history on the origins of rum and a master class on how to make an authentic Cuban mojito. The next stage of the experience will delve into how Havana Club rum is produced and offer the chance to sample sugarcane, molasses and aguardiente; key elements illustrating the rum production process. ‘Nothing Compares to Havana’ will then finish with a Havana Club rum tasting session, led by Meimi Sanchez, International and UK Brand ambassador for Havana Club. She will pair some of the brand’s most iconic rums, such as Havana Club Selección de Maestros, one of the higher styles of Cuban rum with a selection of chocolates.

Meimi Sanchez Havana Club International and UK Brand Ambassador commented: “‘Nothing Compares to Havana’ offers people the chance to learn about how rum is produced and sample some of our authentic Cuban rums in a fun and informal way. Cuba has one of the most diverse cultures and we’re encouraging people to enjoy an evening with us and discover Cuban music, food – and of course, rum – in an iconic location.”

Doors will open to ‘Nothing Compares to Havana’ at Kettner’s, Romilly Street, London, from 18.00 – 23.30 on the 10th- 13th September. Tickets for this immersive experience cost £18.00 and include two Havana Club drinks.
