Jamaica (Bottled for Perola)
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"The almost 3 years more in the barrel have done the rum in my opinion very good. Alcohol is almost perfectly integrated. Clearly smoother and quaffable as the two predecessors of RA and in my opinion also more intense typical cookie dough note, plus baking spices, lots of pineapple and banana bread and minimal citrus notes and light roast flavors. Wood is clearly perceived more intense but at no point too much. Probably the best thing CDI has brought out in a long time! And also in the Mai Tai he topped the two RA's again clearly because the additional wood here simply brings more harmony purely. Mega delicious just!"
Trinidad (Bottled for Caksus)
Top review from Galli33:
"WoW another minty TDL from CDI. I really love this symbiosis between mint/anise and wood/nuts/roasted almonds. Very unique rum. The alcohol is integrated very well. Long minty finish 🤤The value for money ratio is very good too. For me this one is behind the ‘19 version. I found the 19 is more rounder and a bit woodier, which synergy smoother and better. PN: You won’t like it, if you hate minty/anise notes. For me: 16yr>18yr of aging"
Caraibes
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"Got a sample of this rum from RR Tasting Club some time ago. Compagnie des Indes Caraibes is a blend of rums from Guyana, Barbados and Trinidad. The color is quite pale and I haven’t found anything about aging, but I suppose it’s a quite young rum. I don’t recognize rum from Guyana or Barbados in the blend, so I suppose it’s mostly rum from Trinidad in the blend. Overall it’s too bland for my taste and nothing to write home about."
Latino
Top review from cigares :
"A light nose with a Demerara base, a hint of lemon and a hint of pastry. A light, acqueous, pastry-like palate. Clean and flawless, but a little too sweet. A short finish with vanilla cream. In short, a rum without qualities but pleasant to drink, very conciliatory and good value for money."

Top review from Galli33:

Nose: Minty, floral, black tea, green, menthol, delicious, fruity, woody(oak), spicy, licorice, nutty, almond, a bit a sweetness Mouth: Strong, full bodied, complex, elegant, balanced, oily, dry, round, astringend, minty, tobacco, green, mango and plum, menthol, burnt sugar, spicy, licorice, woody(oak), nutty, roasted almonds, dark chocolate Finish: long, dry, full bodied, delicious, menthol, minty, Thymne, black tea, oak"
Mauritius (Perola)
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Clearly milder and more drinkable than the 11y old without finish. The additional 20 months in the Armagnac finish have softened the rum perfectly and taken him some of the edges. The 11y is clearly more funky and intense, this one is clearly more harmonious but still with enough power. Exciting are the light peachy / apricot notes with eucalyptus and dark chocolate with cappuccino, cinnamon, nutmeg and nuts, as well as some lemon zest and at the very end comes back to me the characteristic menthol / grapefruit peel note. I also like very well, almost a little better depending on the mood!😁🥳Anyway, both bottlings are imho absolute Mauritius Gray's benchmarks!👌🏽"
Kaiman
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Retasting this one I admit that I would really have loved this rum to have a higher ABV because I think it would have greatly benefitted the rum. The nose is very fruity with burnt sugar and some grass to it (lile in a Jamaican rum). The palate is wonderful and has a bite on top of the fruity/spicy note. A lot of nice oak but not too much. The finish is long and slightly bitter with oak and ginger."
Reunion (Bottled for Germany)

"Pineapple / strawberry gummy bears on the nose high 10. but also Campino strawberry caramel vanilla yogurt candy 🤣Taste then also pineapple, strawberry candy, green sour granny smith apple and mint"
Trinidad (Bottled for the 1802)
Top review from lukasdrinkinghabits:
"Rum or cognac? Could you say for sure in the blind tasting? I can't. Yes the TDL mint, along with ginger, cloves, citrus you can detect, but there is also the peach, grapey cognac flavors galore. Compared to the Caksus exclusive, the 1802 is brighter and fruitier and without the dark roasted aromas.The same picture in the mouth: mint and bright fruit - very cognacresque. My TDL Falernum to go with it. Actually tastes like a blend of the dirty 2001 and the fruity 2002s. Compared to the Caksus, the finish is much smoother and much less menthol-heavy, here the rösitge barrel does come out again and the alcohol remains perceptible, unfortunately. Very nice TDL."
Boulet de Canon 9
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"liquid Black Forest ham to drink, extremely round and palatable and definitely a great thing for all meat lovers. makes a mega bacon old fashioned and is absolutely not suitable for vegans 🤣🤤🥓🐖🔥🍖🥩 definitely one of my favorite boulets so far! 😍 But you really have to be up for it🤣"
Jamaica HLCF
Top review from Lawich Lowaine:
"Simply magnificent. A bottle to have in your bar. A surprising color for its age. An explosion of tropical fruit on all sides, both on the nose and on the palate. Superbly crafted, with great complexity and well-integrated alcohol. I wonder if it even deserves more than 91%."
Jamaica High Proof
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Hier sind mir pur persönlich etwas zu viel Gewürze dominant wie Muskatnuss und Ingwer, sowie vergorene Kiwi und geröstete Mandeln dazu. insgesamt sehr sehr lecker aber der 12er new Yarmouth hat ganz klar etwas die Nase vorn! Für drinks wie Corn'n'Oil aber absolut geil!"
Trinidad
Top review from Tschusikowsky:
"Komplex, vielschichtig, intensiv. Eine Richtige Bombe! Rum wie ich ihn mag. Kraftvoll minzig und mit langem Abgang. Bewegt sich für mich in zwei Jahrgangswelten (01/03) jedoch mit wesentlich besserer Balance. Coole Abfüllung."
Trinidad (Bottled for Denmark)
Top review from Thunderbird:
"RumX-Kalender Nr. 5 Ein sehr verhaltener Ten Cane! Nicht der Stärkste seiner Art…die klassischen Aromen kommen nicht so präsent daher, alles in allem aber okay 👍🏻 Heute das zweite mal im Glas: Er bekommt zwei Punkte dazu, da er mir heute insgesamt gefälliger und harmonischer erscheint"
Jamaica (Bottled for Denmark)
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"karamellisierte Banane, Vanillepudding, Marzipan, Honig Brioche, Mango und maraschino Kirsche an der Nase. insgesamt deutlich "dunkler" wie der 12er. geschmacklich dann etwas pfirsich Eistee, Muskatnuss, mango und Kumquatmarmelade und salziges brioche mit Marzipan und Karamell. im Abgang dann eher dunkle Schokolade, Mandeln und eher pelzig und nicht so funky & fruchtig cremig wie sein 12 jähriger Kollege. auch mehr Holz und tannine spürbar beim 13er im Vergleich zum 12er!"
Trinidad (Premium Spirits)
Top review from cigares :
"An initial agricultural nose with dried herbs, lime, fruit, menthol and eucalyptus. Flowers too. The menthol, fruit and flowers are reminiscent of TDL, however, and contradict my first impression. On the palate, TDL aromas dominate: fruit, menthol and flowers. A nice acidity invigorates this rum, while a dirty, gasoline, tar and medicinal side gives it depth. On the finish, the wood stands out, an elegant cedar wood with a light bitterness. The aromas fade gently, with fruit and flowers lingering for a very long time. A very fine rum, thanks Mirko for the sample."
Jamaica (Bottled for Germany) DOK
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Favorite DOK, best PLV and just a Brett🤙🏼an the nose full broadside glue and nail polish remover, plus pineapple, green apple, mirabelle, some yogurt, grapefruit peel, butter brioche and honey banana...taste then for 60% DOK very smooth, creamy and funky after glue and pineapple, fully ripe mirabelle, honeydew melon and salty brioche butter bun with baked honey banana. very awesome.... then in the finish comes surprisingly dark chocolate and some toffee, plus again the pineapple and mirabelle. absolutely terrific just! 🙏"
Mauritius (Perola)
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Geiler scheiß. Sehr kräftig und intensiv, das Cognac Fass ist an keiner Stelle zu dominant macht das ganze aber schon auch sehr trocken, pelzig und adstringierend. Die intensiven bitteren Noten von Grapefruitschale, Bitterorange, sowie Eukalyptus Tee und Menthol Mundspülung sowie eine leichte Sauerkirsch Hals Bonbon sind einfach der Hammer und außergewöhnlich. Sehr abgefahrenes Mundgefühl! Definitiv imho mein persönlicher Benchmark Rum wenn's um Mauritius generell und die Grays Destillerie geht!"

Top review from SaibotZtar :
"Great !!! NY at its best, at least for me. Great fruit, lots of ester, marzipan and an incredible mouthfeel. Together with the SBS 2005 my personal reference when it comes to New Yarmouth (2005). Unfortunately really hard to get at a reasonable price."
Australia
Top review from Gregor :
"Im Geruch eher abschreckend. Jedoch dafür ein guter Geschmack. Wirkte anfangs leicht Jamaikanisch doch dafür dann doch zu wenig ester. Sollte man auf jeden Fall mal probieren. Stabil aber nicht zwingend notwendig getrunken zu haben"
Trinidad (Bottled for Premium Spirits)
Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"Blind Tasting. Smells not at all like T.D.L, more like Belize (coconut). On the palate bear strong, massive herbs, slightly chocolaty. The alcohol could definitely be better integrated. This is no ordinary rum, but one that demands everything from the connoisseur. That's why the rating is quite tricky. Because of this stunning taste, I still give it 88 points (which could change again quickly at another tasting, however, so difficult is the rum 🤷♂️)."
Venezuela (Bottled for Germany)
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Wahnsinnig guter Venezuela. Zusammen mit dem RA mein absoluter Benchmark Venezuela cask strength Rum. Das cognac Fass Finish bringt nochmal extra Komplexität rein. Unfassbar lecker und harmonisch! Geheimtipp: Kennedy Manhattan damit!"
Haiti
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"kommt selten vor dass ich eine Trinkstärke einer Fassstärke gegenüber bevorzuge, aber hier ist es eindeutig der Fall. extrem rund und harmonisch einfach sehr angenehm zu trinken. schöne Mischung aus einem tropischen Fruchtsalat mit Honig & etwas Minze und Heu, sowie einer im Geschmack vor allem im Abgang anhaltenden kakao, Kräuter und Karamell Note! sehr schön."
Jamaica
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"#4091 Now to some newer tastings again. Driven by someone asking me to source some bottles from Sweden I finally got one myself as well and what a bottle. Price to quality is very good in my mind. I rested the rum for a good while and the flavours just come at you from opening the bottle and while resting in the glass. A funky and intense rum with nice rotten bananas and spicy/warm palate. If you like Jamaica then you should give this one a try if you get near it."
Haiti
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Ingwer, Schwarztee, Pfirsich und Muskatnuss deutlich kräftiger und der Alkohol könnte etwas besser integriert sein. ich bevorzuge hier Ausnahmsweise Mal die Trinkstärke! ;) einer der besten Single cask Haiti bis dato aber!"
