CLASSIC CARS
The reason behind this abundance of old-fashioned cars was due to the U.S. embargo in 1962, which prohibits any exportation and importation or commerce between the U.S. and Cuba, including cars. After this embargo was legislated, Cubans also lost access to car parts but quickly became resourceful and successfully conserved the quality of their antiquated cars.
You can take a taxi ride, rent vintage car or book a Classic car tour to get the full vintage-car experience.
RUM EXPERTS
The best way to understand Cuban rum is tasting it. If you are very intrigued by the elaboration process of the rum in Cuba, we invite you to pay a visit to Havana’s Rum Museum (Museo del Ron Havana Club).
The most emblematic brands from Cuba are of course Bacardi and Havana Club. As Bacardi left the island before the revolution, Havana Club is the only rum left to rule the island.
