Heel from the Caribbean (5)
I believe the answer is:
cuban
This clue is a double definition.
'heel' is the first definition.
(Cuban heel is an example)
'caribbean' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'from the' is the link.
(Other definitions for cuban that I've seen before include "Nationality of citizen of Havana" , "Republican" , "Citizen of Castro's country" , "from island republic" , "Caribbean" .)
