Who makes the real Havana Club rum? And who owns the rights to sell the liquor under that famous brand name?

I still haven't tried the Bacardi version and don't really care to. Even if they have the original recipe they're producing it from different soil. I will be in Cuba in April and look forward to trying all the different rums produced there.
