8.2/10

An interesting technical rum from the closed TenCane distillery formerly owned by LVMH (Moet Hennessy). Right after smelling it, the aroma evokes heavy red wine, cognac, spices, burnt honey. On the palate, burnt honey, red fruits, heavy spices, harsh red wine come out again. All rounded off with technical notes that come out more on the finish.

8.7/10

Colour beautiful mahogany. Aroma technical, very pleasant for me. Lovely heavy flavour, the colour suggests wood and there is a pleasant smell. This is a rum to my taste, heavy and woody with a long finish. Someone said it transitions to agricole easily and maybe it does but only in a positive way. It's my first Ten Cane so I can't compare but the success in flavor for me is like RS Appleton 2007. SUPER!
