CDI Diamond Guyana Sherry Cask 2007

Most tasters were pleasantly surprised — the sherry cask flavors the rum without burying the Guyana underneath. Dried fruit, raisins, dates and figs lead, with dark chocolate, baked apple, coconut and a dusting of nutmeg and cinnamon. The finish turns dry and tannic, long and clean. At 57% it runs sharp and a touch hot; a couple of drops of water help.

How does CDI Diamond Guyana Sherry Cask 2007 taste?

Summarized by AI from 27 community reviews.

Sherried Demerara, dried-fruit heavy and dry The recurring verdict: a rare CDI win where the sherry finish stays well integrated rather than drowning the Demerara. Most call it complex and rounded, if slightly hot.

Perfect for

sherry-cask fans and dried-fruit lovers

The nose is clearly dominated by sherry alongside spicy fruit. Therefore slightly sulphurous, dried apricot, some grape. Mr. sour of green apple or pear. Only wood and smoke come through. On the palate, the sherry cask unfortunately overpowers the Guyana. The fruit moves a little more towards cherry. What remains is nutmeg spice, some wood and ... sherry. Not bad, but a little arbitrary.

Wow, finally another positive surprise from CDI. Great nose, the sherry ageing doesn't drown out the rum. A fabulous blend.
