CDI Boulet de Canon 13
Peated-whisky drinkers, this one's for you. Compagnie des Indes leaned hard into smoke here: ash, pipe tobacco, campfire and charred barrel dominate, with only a faint caramel underneath. One member nailed it as liquid pipe tobacco. Not everyone's happy — a few say the smoke buries the rum and the body feels thin. Polarizing on purpose.

The look inside the bottle
How does CDI Boulet de Canon 13 taste?
Summarized by AI from 20 community reviews.
Intensely smoky, pipe-tobacco rum for peat fans Split hard down the middle. Smoke, ash and tobacco lovers rate it highly; others find it too smoky, thin and short, with the rum itself nearly gone under the char.

As a smoker, you don't need to smoke afterwards. Tobacco and smoke dominate here. Great piece

A newer bottle at my favorite metal-bar in Copenhagen. This has a very smoky profile, with subtle hints of caramel. Notes of more smoke, spices, burnt hay and a short aftertaste. If you're into peated whisky, you might enjoy this
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Liquid pipe tobacco! Could not put it better. Definitely a completely different "smoke profile" than the other previous ones in the Boulet de Canon series. Not too smoky, not too whisky-like but really a surprisingly pleasant note of mild pipe tobacco. Not much rum left, but still another exciting project from CDI and above all less "aggressive" than previous finishes of the series!
Review by Rumbaron
Notes of ash, tobacco, campfire and straw, also herbs like thyme, rosemary and oregano as well as sweet caramel.
Review by Johannes
Doesn't taste like smoke, pipe smoke integrated into the rum. Unfortunately not my thing at all. But of course that's a matter of taste...
Review by Filip Šikula
Another very intense smoky one. Check. Didn't I accidentally pour this into the ashtray? Didn't. Well then. Again full nose of smokehouse, bacon, smoked, smoke and whisky. The same in taste but again it's rather annoying to me. Low ABV, short finish.
Review by Gert Dhaese
Wow, nice whisky touch.
Review by Insta: spiritofbernard 🇫🇷
Vegetal on the nose and smoky, it's very interesting as a pairing, but the base rum would benefit from more body and texture for the balance to be truly present.
Review by Giuventino
Tobacco/ash too pronounced in smell and taste.
