„Very interesting and complex. Medium-long finish, but not very punchy. I have to be honest, I cannot distinguish this marked black cherry aroma, in fact I found it well balanced. On the finish lychee/cherry. I sensed fleeting notes of marzipan / pastry. If I drink without thinking too much about the bouquet then I perceive its complexity and taste it really well. A very interesting rum that needs attention.“

„The nose is very woody, burnt and in addition the typical red fruits and berries, but also a note that irritates me very much and that I find difficult to grasp: fermented milk with cookie dough?The mouth is a bit more fruity, but otherwise very similar to the nose - but without this weirdo. Alcohol integration is ok, but I feel the 58% more than I should.The 2008 batch of Ten Cane, has produced some super rums between quaffable and brute. This one is somewhere in between, not as quaffable as the RdLs, not as brute as the second Duchess - just because of that a typical, but also somewhat boring representative of the patch. Deductions for this strange note in the nose.“

„If I had to describe this rum in a few words, it would be: complex, complete, almost exuberant. I like the mix of spices, fruits, wood and "dirt". A great Trinidad rum that shows that the country is much more than just Caroni. But certainly not every rum fan will warm to this profile“

„Comparison with RX12167 (RDL CS Ten Cane 2008)I like the 2008 Ten Canes because of the great sour cherry notes. But I've never had one that came up with well-integrated alcohol. So it is here, already stings a bit on the nose - barely less than the RDL with just under 8% more ABV. Compared to the RDL, the nose is more versatile, less closed and brings more marzipan and sour cherry.In the mouth both very similar, the RA a touch more differentiated and both unfortunately with very present alcohol.In the aftertaste of spice, dark chocolate and wood dominates but the sour cherry also remains for a while. The RDL is more intense but fades faster.Who would like to try a 2008 Ten Cane at a fair price is right here. All others will find little new.“

„Very drinkable and tasty ten cane. Extremely intense cherry marzipan and chocolate notes, almost like a Mon Cheri. In addition, some menthol and then again marzipan. Alcohol top integrated. Overall delicious but this intense marzipan flavor is a little too much for me personally.“

„In the nose I have surprisingly at the beginning solvent! After some time, the familiar aromas come, but the alcohol note does not fade even after standing for a long time!On the palate, the already often described MonCheri note bothers me, however, I also find something dirty, which makes up for it a little! Alcohol is not perfect, but still tolerably integrated!The finish is dominated by the sour cherry to the end!Relatively complex, but for me not 100% convincing“

„Interesting variety of flavors, but similar to the CDI (TDK83) also quite alcoholic and especially bitter. With too much wood and tannins I'm quickly out, here I'm already hard on the border. Nevertheless, especially an interesting nose, where I like the Mon Cherie comparison well. In addition, marzipan and some pastry, which are unfortunately found less on the palate. Would do the whole good, but here dominate even more the barrel notes, spices and other bitter notes. For me, better than the aforementioned CDI, but still no highlight.“

„Compared to the one year younger Ten Cane from Romdeluxe (RX12167), I can hardly notice a difference in taste. Perhaps the cherries of Romdeluxe are a bit riper and darker, the Mon Cheri a bit stronger in ABV. But that's about it. Both very drinkable rums. Given the price in relation to the different fill quantities, I would probably reach for a second bottle rather to the RA.“

„Beautiful aromatic complexity. Strong spicy notes, wood, cherry notes, marzipan - on the one hand with many typical rum flavors, but in addition variation thanks to the beautiful fruitiness and savory sweetness.“

„A very nice color (tawny).In the nose cookie dough and milk chocolate, clove, tannins and fruit. The profile is complemented by a slightly rancid note. Reminds me strongly of Bielle 2001.In the mouth very powerful, despite a few drops of water. Powerful, long finish. Very peppery and neat citrus.Very good Ten Cane (is only my second of these).“

„Für mich kein guter Vertreter von Ten Cane. Bis auf ein wenig Kirsche ist überhaupt keine Fruchtigkeit erkennbar. Im Abgang finde ich ihn sehr säuerlich.“

„The first thing that struck me right at the first tasting at the Aquavitae fair remains formative even now. This insane cherry lollipop flavor (which there used to be times at the pediatrician😁). I can't get rid of that here either, I don't think it's bad at all. Not quite as intense as a the duchess rather an easy sipper but with neat complexity.“

„Erwartet hatte ich Kirsche, Menthol, Marzipan und dies wurde auch geliefert. Leicht störend empfand ich die alkoholische Note in der Nase, die bedauerlicherweise selbst nach ca. 45 Minuten nicht verschwunden war. Wenn ich die Abfüllung von Rum Artesanal mit der von Rom de Luxe vergleichen muss, dann hat die Abfüllung aus Dänemark die Nase ganz weit vorne.“
