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.

Tasting 19/4-24 Peters Vin. Nose: A lot is going on. Dried fruits and the sherry finish is very clear. Taste: Lots of dried fruits, raisins, dates,figs. And the sherry finish is very well integrated . Finish: Some driness, long and very delicious. The best rum of the evening..

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.
Review by Agricoler
Wow, finally another positive surprise from CDI. Great nose, the sherry ageing doesn't drown out the rum. A fabulous blend.
Review by Johannes
I am once again pleasantly surprised by CDI! The sherry finish is clearly present, but does not overpower the rum and is well integrated. It's fun!

A sloop full of pepper sails down the gullet.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very nice & complex Guyana rum. The 4-year sherry cask finish is not as present as one would expect. Nice roasted aromas, lots of dark chocolate, coconut macaroons, baked apple, blackberry and currant, fruit bread and cinnamon and leather. On the finish tannins and lots of cask. All in all a rounded thing... Could just be a bit milder, the alcohol is not as perfectly integrated as I would have expected. But really tasty!
Review by Lukas Jäger
For once, no finish that overpowers everything, but unfortunately still not really good. Very sharp in the mouth, quite alcoholic and above all dark aromas (rusty, dried fruit and wood) do not bring a taste that convinces me.
