Havana Club, one of the world's most famous authentic Cuban rums, has produced a series of short videos featuring local personalities including actress/presenter Selly Galley, celebrity tailor/actor, Elikem Kumordzie and actress/producer Maame Adjei of the hit TV Show, An African City.

The video series filmed at Little Havana, West Africa's first Afro-Latino restaurant, also features award-winning mixologist, Johnson Ace Bartender preparing custom and classic rum cocktails.

"At Little Havana, we are the West African brand ambassador for Havana Club and provide a platform to further promote the brand and Cuban cultural connection with West Africa.

It was exciting to highlight some of these cultural connections through food, drinks, and cigars from Cuba with local personalities in the video series," says Marcus Morgan-Etty who is the owner and chef at Little Havana.

Each video features the personality at Little Havana having a unique experience with Havana Club.

Maame Adjei, best known for her role as "Zainab" on the hit TV series "An African City" and producer of the travel show "Girl Going Places" which explores the beauty and dynamism of Africa, learned the art of preparing the perfect rum cocktail with mixologist Johnson Ace Bartender. Johnson shared his experience visiting Cuba for the first time and gave Maame step by step instructions on preparing his Mama Ines cocktail which won 3rd place at the annual Havana Club Grand Prix, one of Cuba's oldest and most prestigious competitions for professional bartenders.
