Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This was a very surprising rum to give a go. Very fruity from nose to finish and also with a wooden touch all the way. What I like a both this particular rum is the way it changes from nose to palate and then again to the finish. It does so and still maintains a very high level of integrity. The smoky wood flavours on the palate and finish really puts this one up there with the top shelf ones. Sad that Ten Cane is history because they could really make unique flavours.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Wow, that doesn't pick me up at all. While the rum is still slightly fruity on the nose, it's just sharp on the palate. Too bad.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
unheimlich komplex an der Nase, erst eine Breitseite Kartonage und später fruchtig nach Pflaume und Himbeere, Floral nach Rose, etwas grapefruit, Sandelholz, dunkler Schokolade und Ahornsirup, sowie kräftigem Mokka. geschmacklich leicht salzig, bitter nach grapefruit, Sandelholz, datteln, Mokka, sehr dunkler Schokolade, sowie etwas Mandarine und Rosenwasser. im Abgang dann leicht nach Lebkuchen, Mandarine und dunkler Schokolade. die Fruchtigkeit von der Nase fehlt leider Geschmacklich. Alkohol ist gut eingebunden, insgesamt nicht ganz so komplex wie der duchess ten cane, aber dafür dennoch sehr lecker.
Review by Michael Schillheim
Was soll ich jetzt sagen? Dieser Ten Cane holt mich so gar nicht ab. Die floralen Noten erinnern mich am Parfum und wirken auf mich sehr künstlich. Der Alkohol ist deutlich spürbar und wirkt im Nachklang störend scharfkantig.
Review by Tschusikowsky
Für mich der beste probierte Ten Cane. Schöne Komplexität. Alkohl am besten von allen eingebunden. Ermöglicht den Aromen zu entfalten ohne vom Alkohol übertönt zu werden. Mir gefallen die Capuccino Noten die durchkommen.
Review by Leo Krüper
Kräutrig, wild, jung. Sehr schöner abwechslungsreicher Rum mit hohem Wiedererkennungswert. Leichter Minzgeschmack wie die älteren TDLs, aber insgesamt mehr Kräuter, Teer im Geschmack. Alkohol sehr gut integriert, Abgang recht kurz.
Review by Thunderbird
Ein gut gemachter Rum, die floralen Noten sind nicht so ganz meins, aber das ist ja bekanntlich Geschmackssache!
Review by Righrum
The Ten Cane markers I like most, bitter and metallic, here are a bit hidden behind a sweet side
Review by zabo
Naja im Vergleich zur Abfüllung von TnT Cask schmeckt dieser mehr nach Kräutern. Alkohol ist zwar gut eingebunden, aber er trifft nicht ganz meinen Geschmack
Review by Gregor
Preis Leistungsverhältnis nicht angebracht
Review by Wernie
Feine Ten Cane Nase, dieser Mix auf vielen floralen Noten,vorallem Rosenduft,dazu kommt mir erst Pflaume in den Sinn,dazu Grapefruit und dann junges Holz und leichte Süße. Im Mund wechseln die Aromen so schnell das man sie kaum erfassen kann, erst kommt er mir recht dünn vor,dann wir er komlexer. Die floralen Noten sind weiterhin erkennbar, doch überwiegen jetzt die holzigen/würzigen Noten. Spürbar salzig rauchig verabschiedet er sich aus dem Mund. Wildes Zeug.😉

"It is not that I can really point the fault in this directly. Because a lot of nice things go on here. In the end it is probably too young and too thin. And the finish gets really two dimensional too."
