8.9/10

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.

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.

8.3/10

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.

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.

8.0/10

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.

8.2/10

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.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut

"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."
