Review by RumTaTa
Second tasting:After some time in the glass, the alcohol is no longer so disturbing. I relativize my rating but still (-4).This Ten Cane goes strongly in the direction of Caroni, in the nose still the familiar profile of Ten Cane with the almond and sour cherry aromas. But on the palate it really takes off: a lot of wood, nuts in between, the alcohol is very present, a lot of dark chocolate and lots of coffee and machine oil. The finish becomes more differentiated again with walnut, almonds and red fruits.Not the best, but a very good Ten Cane with a dirty side. And I am again intrigued by the sour cherry notes!
Review by Galli33
Till today Ten Cane was more like an underdog for me, due to the samples i‘ve tried so far! But this one is a bomb and by far the best one i‘ve tried so far. I enjoyed this a lot, due all the wonderfull notes and complexity. The alcohol is well noted, but i think at the it has a big influence on the outcome 🥃
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Richtig schöner 2008er Ten Cane! Alkohol gut integriert, und dazu erinnert mich sowohl die Nase als auch der Geschmack stark an richtig guten Rye Whisky, würzig, frisch und intensiv. Hat was von frisch gebackenem Roggen und Sauerteigbrot mit Sauerkirsch Konfitüre und gerösteten salzigen Walnüssen. Viel Tannine und bitteres Leder im Abgang. Gefällt mir, könnte aber etwas weniger röstige Pumpernickel Aromen haben. Auch könnte der Alkohol besser integriert sein .
Review by mto75
Intensive Nase, mit roten Früchten, Fass, Karamell. Auch schöne würzige Noten. Am Gaumen Kaffee, getoastetes Fass, komplettiert durch eine schöne Karamell-Süße. Guter Vertreter des 2008er Jahrgangs (auch wenn noch etwas Luft nach oben ist).
Review by Thunderbird
A TDL that comes more from the dark heavy side. In the nose initially still some fruit (sour cherry), he then changes with something fresh in the spicy leathery corner.creamy he spreads on the palate and comes strongly with wood, dark chocolate, mocha, nut and spicy notes therefore! Something prune I also taste out!The finish is medium long with almost identical flavors!I like very much!
Review by Buddudharma
Neat Ten Cane, but alcohol integration is not optimal here either.
Review by Casper Jensen
Destilleriet findes åbenbart ikke mere. Kunne måske tåle en dråbe vand.
Review by Timo Groeger
Ein ganz guter CdI. Etwas zu alkohlisch in der Nase. Ansonsten hat man noch leichte Noten von Karamell und Tabak in der Nase. Am Gaumen dann Holz, Fass, Kaffee und dunkle Schokolade. Insgesamt ganz okay.
Review by Joachim Guger
Beautiful nose. Very light Caroni touch, fruity. The 61% is well integrated. In the mind then massive tannins and furry, then the pleasure decreases a bit. Finish rather short.

Review by Johannes
Alkohol nicht gut eingebunden, geschmacklich relativ flach.
Review by Lukas Jäger
When opening the sample, I was really excited about what awaits me here. The very first impression, even before pouring went for me in the direction of Jamaica, perhaps a good EMB, plus some dirt, which is so typical of some distilleries in Trinidad. After tasting, I must unfortunately conclude: This is times nix! Alcoholic, very woody-bitter, here my impression of the fluctuating quality of Ten Cane is unfortunately confirmed. From really tasty to really not to use I had now already everything. Very sad, but so seen a small consolation, since I otherwise actually regret that Ten Cane was open only so briefly!
Review by Tschusikowsky
Good finish. Chocolate palpable. However, alcohol sharpness in the mouth palpable.
