CDI Compass (Overproof White Rum)
Built for cocktails, not for sipping — that's the near-unanimous read from tasters who caught this at the rum fests. It's an overproof cane-juice white from the Dominican Republic with a Grand Arôme streak: overripe banana, fresh citrus, green apple and a glue-and-ester note humming in the background, with sugarcane and pepper on the palate. At 51.2% neat it's sharp, but people rave about the daiquiris it makes.

- Ripe banana funk

How does CDI Compass (Overproof White Rum) taste?
Aggregated from 11 community reviews.
Overproof cane-juice white, made for daiquiris Nearly everyone lands the same place: too raw to sip neat, but a genuinely fun mixing white — one taster expects "geile daiquiris." Fruity-glue funk that rewards a shaker.

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Hinweis: Tätigkeit bei Perola GmbH (Spirituosenbranche), teilweise berufliche Involvierung bei bewerteten Abfüllungen. Alle Bewertungen sind meine persönliche, unbezahlte Meinung. Super intensiver leckerer und kräftiger Grand Arome Dom rep high ester Rum. Viel Klebstoff, grüner Apfel, sowie überreife Zitrusfrüchte. Sehr aromatisch und langanhaltend. Macht sicherlich geile daiquiris!! Allerdings für mich kein Vergleich zum tricorne früher. Für 27€ aber extrem fair bepreist.

#5791 29.09.2025 Day three of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. This is a better release because it has little to no sugar in it. I would have loved a higher ABV, but that may be in the futur perhaps. A very nice fruity rum with nice sugarcane and a spicy palate with olive and vegetal notes. A light glue note is also in there.
Review by Skyfly
Kleines CDI Core Range X-Tasting: für mich überwiegt hier die Banane in Nase und Gaumen. Daneben recht frisch mit Zitrusfrüchten und immer leichter Zuckerrohr und Gewürze zu schmecken. Ester und Klebstoff sind im Hintergrund wahrnehmbar. Definitiv nichts zum pur trinken aber sicher spannend in einem Banana-Daiquiri
