CDI Guyana Armagnac Finish 2007
People who chase heavily wine-finished, cask-strength Demeraras will find plenty here. The nose leans woody and roasted with dried fruit, prune and mulled-wine warmth; the palate turns dry and tannic with gingerbread, cardamom and roasted chestnuts. Several tasters read it as a red-wine finish rather than Armagnac, and at 61.2% the alcohol sits a bit sharp. One called it "a lovely glass," another wanted more.
The community says- Roasted wood depth
- Dried fruit, spice
- But: Sharp alcohol

How does CDI Guyana Armagnac Finish 2007 taste?
Aggregated from 19 community reviews.
Dry, woody Guyana with a big wine finish Woody, roasted and dry with dried fruit and a strong barrel influence. Well liked but not adored — a few find the high-proof alcohol poorly integrated and the finish overpowered by the cask.

The taste is dry and powerful at first, but then develops slightly sweeter notes of gingerbread, freshly baked bread, cardamom and roasted chestnuts - a lovely glass 🙌

Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
A lot of finesse in the nose of this rum, it is seductive, between floral notes of lavender and fruity notes of honey and sugar cane. Without forgetting the plum jam or the mulled wine of the Christmas market (it depends if you have a CST or not). The attack in mouth is rougher than the nose suggests. But once the mouth is coated, we can enjoy this rather surprising juice. The woody and spicy aromas are clearly accentuated compared to the nose. But not only: vanilla, pepper, licorice, but also notes of undergrowth and resin. And to finish some candied fruits
Review by Timo Groeger
Letzter Rum, der ist schon ein anderes Kaliber, auch wenn er mich nicht ganz abholt. In der Nase ist er holzig und röstig. Er bleibt am Gaumen röstig, wird noch würzig, aber ich finde den Alkohol schlecht integriert.
Review by bavarian-rumlover
Schön auf der Zunge, leichte florale Noten, sehr gut zu Sippen
Review by Skyfly
Mittelklassiger Rum, bei dem man im ersten Moment eher an ein Rotwein-, als ein Armagnacfinish denkt. Sonst viel Holz, Trockenfrüchte und Gewürze. Alkohol in Gaumen und Abgang präsent, aber nicht störend. Hatte mir insgesamt was besseres vorgestellt.
Review by Johannes
Das Armagnac Finish ist ordentlich präsent. Ich wäre blind eher bei Weinfinish gewesen. Der Grundstoff ist nicht wirklich gut zu erkennen. Land oder geschweige denn das Mark könnte ich nicht zuordnen.
