Are you sure that the above info was correct? I've not seen any HC7 yet in Waitrose.

They released details of their October offers a couple of weeks ago and it looks like HC7 will go on sale from Oct 7th until Nov 3rd, but the price is not listed.

It wasn't in our waitrose either; ours only ever has about 5 on the shelves anyway; never any white stuff.

It was definitely on sale (at that price) at Waitrose, West Ealing, London W13, although I haven't seen it for a couple of weeks now.

Waitrose lauches it's new special offers today, October 7th. According to their press release, they will stock Havana Club 7. Can anybody confirm that HC7 is present in stores?

**EDIT: The Waitrose website has now got HC7 listed at £19.99, but there is no special offer price unfortunately. It looks like Santa Teresa Gran Reserva is on offer at £10.99, and if you really fancy it, you can pick up a bottle of Bacardi for the same price. Any takers?

while popping into my local marks & spencer to look at the halloween stuff, i noticed they have started stocking angostura. they have the reserva for Ј14.99 and the 5 year caribbean for Ј16.99. they also have their own brand guyana dark rum too. i guess that means no more of the calico jack range then.

My local Waitrose doesn't have any HC7 at all, at any price.

Waitrose have just reduced the price of Havana Club 7 year old from Ј19.99 to Ј15.99. This offer runs till 16th February 2010.

Fantastic! I saw this deal listed on their press release a few weeks ago. Pity my local Waitrose in Putney still doesn't carry the HC7. I might have to make a trip to up the road to Wandsworth.

well just color me jealous over here. :)

I still don't understand why Cuba doesn't just adopt Chinese-type communism - the US apparently has no trouble doing business with that brand of repression whatsoever!

I hear you Joe. If Cuba was the size of China I believe the U.S.A. would be seeing products marked "Made in Cuba".

came back from mexico last week with all sorts of goodies in tow. Aboslutely fell in love with the Havana club 7. funny how it jumped into luggage. Also brought home mocambo and zacapa. the mocambo artisan (dried bark/seaweed on bottle) was $12 a bottle and the zacapa was 25 on the strip in playa del carmen. havana barrel was 30 and havana 7 yr was 16. It was like being a kid in a candy store.

Nice lift there 1967cougar.

Outstanding haul - and the prices you paid makes it even more extra better!
