CDI Spiced Rum
Anyone chasing a heavily spiced, nutmeg-forward mixer will find their bottle here. Ginger, clove and a big hit of nutmeg dominate, with orange and cinnamon underneath — one taster even nailed it as grandma's mashed potatoes with a mountain of nutmeg. The rum itself hides behind the spice. Most agree it's not for sipping neat; it shines in a dark 'n' stormy or a winter grog.

How does CDI Spiced Rum taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Heavily spiced, nutmeg-driven mixing rum Very divisive. Fans call it an unusual spiced rum that's great in cocktails; several find it flat-out over-spiced, with the nutmeg drowning everything and no fun neat.

Review by Insta: spiritofbernard 🇫🇷
Strong on ginger, nutmeg, orange and cinnamon. Not my pure style, but great as a toddy in winter or a dark n stormy in summer.
Review by zabo
What is this, please? It was really a torture to try this. This bottling is not just spiced but over-spiced! I couldn't even get it down with cola. But the idea now is to use this as a Falernum substitute, since for me it goes in that direction.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Note: Employment at Perola GmbH (spirits industry), partial professional involvement with evaluated bottlings. All reviews are my personal, unpaid opinion. For me personally, way too much nutmeg ... still an unusual spiced rum and different from many other brands on the market and interesting. Edit: 50/50 with the CDI navy strength + hot apple juice as a hot buttered rum, it's quite nice in winter.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Grandma's mashed potatoes with lots of nutmeg is the first association here. Ginger, cinnamon, cloves, honey and orange play second fiddle on the nose. Rum is no longer necessarily noticeable here. The palate shows that pure enjoyment was not the plan here. Not bad at all, not at all boozy - but very strongly spiced. The nutmeg in particular is really strong here. I think it's good, but I really have to say that the direction is VERY special. Supplement when tried in drinks.
Review by Johannes
Orange bitters, nutmeg, ginger, juniper. Not drinkable for my taste.
Review by Tom Buteneers
Lots of citrus, some ginger and cloves. Fresh, somewhat reminiscent of gin. Not for drinking pure, but for mixing: dark ''n stormy please!
Review by Oliver
Nothing to enjoy pure. Very much nutmeg and ginger.
