Blackadder Ten Cane Raw Cask Rum 2010

Opinions genuinely split here, and both camps are loud about it. The nose wins nearly everyone over — coffee, chocolate, butterscotch, a hint of marzipan. Then the palate turns dark and rough: burnt caramel, charred wood, black pepper and a bitter edge that oily 66.4% makes bigger. Fans call it a proper roasty Trinidad pot still; others find it harsh and unbalanced.

The community says
  • Coffee-cocoa nose
  • Bold roasty palate

#4283 07.10.2023 this was a 7 hour long event with 3 friends and it was a nice day. This is a pretty good rum when looking at the price tag. The raw cask sometimes contain small pieces of the cask and so did this one. Fresh and lightly fruity with some nice caramel and marzipan. The palate is oily and warm. The finish medium long and fresh. The empty glass had stronger marzipan and some glue.

Aquavitae Mülheim October 2025. Yes, it's clearly different from the Jamaica. Here we mostly have coffee, cocoa and wood. On the palate then also burnt, charred and woody. Espresso and roastiness also recognizable.

6.9/10

Clearly dark, roasted aromas on the nose with burnt wood notes and a strong alcohol note. On the palate very intense, dry and increasingly bitter, with lots of barrel spice and distinctly alcoholic sharpness. Little balance and hardly any freshness, overall rather heavy and rough than elegant.
