CDI Secret Australia 2014

Opinion here lands around "interesting but not for me" — the sherry finish is the story, and whether that's a plus depends on you. Expect dry plum, leather, tobacco and a nutty nougat sweetness over a Beenleigh pot-and-column base. Several tasters felt the Fino cask buried the Australian distillate; a couple found it harmonious and very easy-drinking. Not too sweet, but sherry-led throughout.

Aggregated from 13 community reviews.

Dry, sherry-finished sipper that hides its base Members mostly land at "fine, not a highlight" — the sherry finish takes over and the base distillate gets lost. One taster still found it harmonious and dangerously drinkable.

Perfect for

fans of dry, sherry-finished rums

Less suitable for

Entspannter & brutal süffiger Australier. Sherry Finish klar erkennbar, aber nicht zu dominant und sehr harmonisch. Kann man auf jeden Fall machen! 😁 Die typische Birne, Mirabelle & Ingwer note vom Australier ist da wird durchs Sherry Finish aber fast schon mit etwas Tabak, Leder aber auch Nuss Nougat Creme erweitert und ist dennoch an keiner Stelle zu süß!

Un rum pot still et colonne de chez Beenleigh très marqué par le Sherry Fino avec un nez très marqué sur la poudre et le pétard mouillé. Pas mon style mais très intéressant.

Aged rum

Style

Aged rum 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 16,000 Rums

Aged rum is where the spirit earns its complexity. In a tropical warehouse a barrel loses 6 to 10 percent of its contents to evaporation every year, which is why an 8-year Caribbean rum can taste deeper than a 20-year Scotch. This page gathers every rum on RumX that has spent real time in wood, with community ratings to separate the genuinely mature from the merely dark.

` between two key/value pairs terminates the expression and Hugo fails the whole build with `unexpected "{" in operand`.
