“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.”

“Dieser CDI (und der Germany exclusive) gehört zu den aller ersten 2003er TDLs mit der prominenten Menthol-Note, ich habe die lange gejagt und freue mich sehr ihn probieren zu können. Das Profil ist spannungsreich: Einerseits heftige Mentholnoten und gerade frisch aus der Flasche einige Lösungsmittel, dann aber nicht die schweren, dunklen Aromen, wie sie die 2001er TDLs haben, sondern eine sehr fruchtige Facette. Das Aromenspektrum ist sehr tropisch mit prominenter Passionsfrucht und Mango, nicht so sehr das gelbe Steinobst, des Caksus CDI 2003. Der Mund setzt das Profil weiter fort, mit dem typischen Tee und etwas mehr würziger Tiefe als ich bei der Nase erwartet hätte. Der Alkohol ist super eingebunden. Der Abgang ist wie oft bei den TDLs sehr lang, frisch und minzig. Ein toller Rum, zum UVP mit grandiosen PLV.”

“Eigentlich eine schöne T.D.L Abfüllung. Viele kräftige typische Minze- und Mentholnoten. Der Geschmack hält schön lange an. Das einzige was mich daran stört, ist dass der Alkohol nicht ganz so gut eingebunden ist. Leider wird er bitterer je mehr er atmet. Sonst wäre eine bessere Bewertung möglich gewesen.”
