They purchased the recipe and name rights from the Jose Arechabala family who were exiled from Cuba after the Cuban revolution. The communist government nationalized all businesses from the people of Cuba and continued to produce this Rum that was the life long work of the Arechabalas. Bacardi has won several court battles in the US to defend their rights to Havana Club and these politicians could be breaking the law by trying circumvent the rights of this US company. If they do this I would not be surprised if taxpayer money goes to pay large fines after Bacardi wins one more lawsuit. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10478125960927274733noreply@blogger.com
