Cadenhead‘s DDL Green Label 1999

8.0/10
Rated by zabo, Jakob & 6 more

A solid stepping stone for those exploring Demerara: tropical fruit, bitter orange and varnishy wood on the nose, with dried fruit, mint and marmalade on the palate. Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water. Backed by 8 RumX reviews, it’s seen as one of the stronger 46% Green Label Guyana releases, though more focused than deep.

  • Classic Demerara notes
  • Minty freshness
  • Well-integrated alcohol

How does Cadenhead‘s DDL Green Label 1999 taste?

Aggregated from 8 community reviews.

Classic Demerara with minty twist Highly regarded as one of the better Green Label Guyanas, with a classic Demerara profile, minty twist and well-behaved 46% ABV, though some find it a bit thin and short.

Perfect for

Fans of classic Demerara profiles who enjoy moderate ABV, tropical fruit, minty bitterness and a cleaner, drier style rather than heavy sweetness or cask strength power.

Less suitable for

Those wanting big, oily cask strength rums, long finishes or very sweet, dessert-style sippers; flavor hunters who demand maximum depth may find it too light.

Wieder mal ein Rum aus Alex seinem Cadenhead Split. Zwar finde ich diesen wieder ein wenig dünn, aber trotzallem wirkt er nicht wässrig. Man muss dieser Serie echt Respekt zollen. Man muss zu geben, dass dieser wiedermal echt gut schmeckt.

Aussergewöhnlich dank Minz-Noten an Gaumen und im Abgang. Angenehme Süsse, Holz, Gewürze, kühlende Tiefe dank der erwähnten Minzaromatik - interessant und für mich eines der besseren Releases unter den 46% Green Label Guyanas von Cadenhead.
