Neat at 58.6% it opens fruity but hot, the alcohol poking through more than most tasters want from an 18-year-old. A few drops of water pull out chocolate and caramel. Underneath you get yellow fruit, pear, brown sugar and toasted coconut over dry roasted wood. Several members found it thin and simple for its age; the finish turns woody and a touch bitter.
The community says- Fresh yellow fruit
- Opens with water
- Keep in mind: Sharp alcohol

How does CDI Florida (Whisky and such) 2004 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Fruity but hot, simple for an 18-year-old Divisive, and mostly on the low side: fans of the fruit call it a fun exotic pour, but many felt 18 years delivered too little and the alcohol stings.

Edit: as a blender rather the category fast and light summer CubaLibre Well, Florida and after the first reviews I had my doubts. I went in with an open mind and no great expectations. It's not that bad after all. It has a certain fruitiness and sweetness. Not really anything complex, but for an exotic drink in between, quite ok. I've had far worse in my glass recently.
Review by LukaŽiga
7,8:On the nose, the first impression we get is molasses with roasted wood, resinous, some caramel and burnt sugar, vanilla, coconut and honey, fruity, as there is a nice pear. When aired a bit, peaches come out, dried fruits, chocolate and some menthol. 7,8:On the palate, the attack is spicy and fruity with pear, pineapple, there is a roasted wood with some chocolate, still a bit resinous, caramel, the coconut is toasted and sweet, we get vegetal notes with some eucalyptus, floral, menthol. It is a bit on thin side, but still pleasant and tasty. 7,9:The finish is very nice, sweet, long, woody, dry. There are toasted coconut, pineapple, berries, some spices, vanilla...
Review by Timo Groeger
It's also quite old, you have to like it. The alcoholic smell predominates on the nose, otherwise some fruit and brown sugar. The palate is also alcoholic at first, then it becomes fruity and woody, then caramel and chocolate towards the finish.

Brussels Rhum Festival 2024 Spicy, floral, fresh on the nose. In the mouth, sweetish, mildly fruity, initially rather flat, it develops towards spiciness on the tongue. The finish is short, fruity and rather spicy.
Review by MarcT
My first pne from Florida, i actually dont know what the distillery is and i hope i remember to look for it when i get to the appropriate chapter of the Rum Bible. So, i had mo expectations. First Impression was: fruity, cask influence, does it taste a bite like Bourbon, nah, can't be. But the thought lingered... Overall well made, but not perfect. The Alcohol is noticeable and at some time could be too harsh for me, so sadly not at the 8 points mark.
Review by Dr.Django
An 18-year-old single cask rum from Florida sounds very exciting at first. Unfortunately, it does not surprise positively in the glass and on the palate. The opposite is more the case. It is very simple for 18 years of barrel ageing. From the nose to the short and alcoholically sharp finish, floral notes dominate, paired with lots of granulated sugar and some sweet spice. Many thanks for the sample to Alex K.!
Review by Schnubbii
Fruity on the nose and palate, but also quite sharp-alcoholic. Doesn't really convince me, not even with cola. Not needed.
Review by Wernie
Florida Rum, nie gehört, umso gespannter war ich. Er ist richtig frisch, aber auch sehr leicht in der Nase, mit gelben Früchten und Rhabarber und der Süße von dünnem Honig, nach ein wenig atmen kommt ein wenig Holz und Würze hinzu. Für 18 Jahre sehr verhalten. Er erste Eindruck an Gaumen ist dünn und alkoholisch, rechg schnell wird er holzig röstig und irgendwie fleischig. Der Abgang ist holzig, bitter und warm. Brutal könnte man jetzt sagen - 18Jahre vergeudet 🙈, man hat sich mehr erhofft. Vielleicht kommt ja noch mal was bessers aus dem Sunshine State. Danke fürs Sample Alku :-)
Review by FischeJ
Very sweet nose. Alcohol also stings. Otherwise not much comes through. On the palate quite similar. Tastes quite spirited. And quite woody (unfortunately in a negative sense). Tastes somehow "empty".
