How does this rum taste?
Wild Series Rum No. 48 BTXCA from the Ten Cane Distillery in Trinidad offers an intriguing experience with its fruity, woody, and spicy aroma profile. Bottled at cask strength with a 59.1% ABV, this limited-release rum requires patience to unveil its complexity, showing notes of red fruits, menthol, and a hint of nuttiness. While some users noted well-integrated alcohol, others found it slightly overpowering. With just 192 bottles available, it's a rare find worth exploring for those who appreciate quirky, evolving flavors that mix freshness with a touch of 'dirty' character, likened by some to a 'Caroni light.'

I have previously tasted sampels of Ten Cane which was not me, since then I have mostly stuck to Jamaica which I love. That said, this bottle surprises me, especially after some time in the glass. The nose is fruit and nuts. The tongue is hit by a round and soft almost fruit juice. You don't taste it at almost 60%, the glass was quickly empty 😉 Maybe my taste has changed, but this is an absolutely fantastic rum from Ten Cane.
Give the rum some time in the glass, is one of the candidates that develops. I liked the freshness of this barrel from the start. Had some bottlings of the more widespread 2008 Vintages and ultimately decided specifically for this barrel. Certainly subjective, but I find 11-13yo fits Ten Cane best. The alcohol is well integrated, but you should give the "monkey" some time in the glass - especially with freshly opened bottles. The nose tells me dried fruit, melted butter, nuts and freshly polished leather. Flavor-wise, I got hazelnut, some herbs and a fresh note that I find hard to pin down (think the use of sugar cane juice, instead of molasses definitely plays into this..I can see why people like to dub Ten Cane as Caroni light....somewhat dirty, but still fresh). With time it becomes very "creamy", drinkable and complex in the glass. Cheers🥃🇩🇰
Very nice Ten Cane! Pleasantly round and fresh, light mint/eucalyptus with woody notes that harmonize well with some spices. But it definitely needs time in the glass to develop. But then you have something really fine! Many thanks to @KevinDK for the sample!
04.05.2024 Retasting during a nice exclusive tasting at Romdeluxe. I stick to my score and I still love it. -------------------------- 14.12.2023 Retasting and I still love the profile. Luckily I have a backup bottle on the shelf. --------------- #4237 Thinking about the price tag you get a lot for your money in my mind. A very fresh and fruity Ten Cane with well integrated ABV and wood. It does need to rest though or the ABV will hide some of the flavors. Draws nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass has some mint and very light nutts.
