TNT Casks Ten Cane Single Cask Rum 2012

8.1/10
Rated by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰, F.L.O. & 12 more

Trinidad cask-strength drinkers wanting an easy daily pour will land here. Pear runs through the whole thing, nose to palate, with citrus, green apple, a little spice and young wood behind it. Several tasters call it a "daily sipper" without sharp edges. The recurring gripe: at 60.4% the alcohol isn't fully tucked in. A few drops of water help it open up.

  • Clear pear note
  • Fresh and fruity
  • Good everyday sipper

How does TNT Casks Ten Cane Single Cask Rum 2012 taste?

Aggregated from 14 community reviews.

Pear-heavy Trinidad cask strength, slightly hot Well-liked pear-forward Trinidad rum from Ten Cane. Most find it pleasant and fruity, but the common catch is alcohol that's a touch sharp and not fully integrated at full strength.

Perfect for

People easing into Trinidad cask strength who like fresh, fruity, pear-driven rum

Less suitable for

Anyone wanting a bold, characterful rum or smooth integration at high ABV

#4580 26-27.01.2024 Hanse Spirit Never heard of this brand so I had to give it a go and bring home a sample. Pretty well balanced rum at an OK price tag. Nose Fresh, light wood, faint roasted notes, citrus, fruitcake, light herbal and caramel. Palate Fresh, wood, light roasted, fruity, light mint, caramel, lightly vegetal. Finish Medium to long, wood, dried fruit, light herbs, mint.

Ein sehr leckerer Daily Sipper, jedoch keiner mit Ecken, Kanten oder anderen Merkmalen die ihn „Besonders“ machen. Warum man ihn mit einem Spritzer Wasser trinken sollte ist mir ein Rätsel. Den Alkohol finde ich auch gut eingebunden. Gut geeignet, um Neulinge an Trinidad Cask Strength heranzuführen.

Ein paar Tropfen Wasser sind meiner Meinung nach echt wohltuend für den Rum. Eine kräutrige Honig/Cola Note kommt sowohl an Nase und Gaumen an. Guter Rum der im Vergleich zu den TDLs eine schöne Abwechslung bietet.

Edit: Rest and a few drops will do him good. Unfortunately I had to adjust it down a bit. Now that I've finally been able to try a TenCane from another bottler, it remains a very good rum for me. In general, it appeals to me very much. With a little water it unfolds its aromas. Only the alcohol could be better integrated.

Solider Rum, fand ihn erst relativ unspäktakulär, bis mir aufgefallen ist, dass er übelst nach Maulbeere schmeckt, nach längerer Oxidationszeit.

Un nez très agréable dans lequel la poire est très présente. Une certaine fraîcheur végétale également. La poire reste en bouche, accompagnée d'épices. Joliment fruité mais alcool mal intégré qui gâche un peu la dégustation.
