CoR T.D.L Up Spirits #3 2008

Store visit Rhum Attitude Brussels May 2025. Taken along as a sample. Seems to be relatively new, the seller praised it properly and was right

I had opened the bottle during a tasting of several bottles with friends, and we really liked it. But I wanted to give an opinion after a second tasting. The nose is a little overwhelmed by the alcohol, normal at the beginning of the bottle and over 63 degrees. There's red fruit, burnt sugar and a phenol-type chemical. On the palate, it bites, but by the 3rd sip it's beginning to be tamed. Fruity blackcurrant-cherry bitterness, mentholated freshness and coca cola. A touch of rubber. Endless finish! Fresh, black cherry, menthol. Conclusion: a rum tonic!

Nez très mentholé et porté par les fruits rouges. Profil plutôt dans la lignée des TDL de la même année. En bouche, wow, c'est intense. L'alcool est vraiment mordant. Bien trop pour moi. Menthol et cassis dominent. Végétal. Sympa mais je re-testerai avec une goutte d'eau

Wow, what a slap! The nose is quite Caroni: oil, dirt, hydrocarbons, blackcurrant, old tires, rubber. We're also on TDL with a little eucalyptus. But we also smell black fruits: blackberries. The nose is aggressive in alcohol. This is a Spiritori TDL, which I find even dirtier. The palate becomes TDL and rivals last year's Spirit Gallery: menthol all over the place, red fruits, the dirty side disappears for this bomb of red fruits (blackcurrant, raspberry, blackberry). The whole is warm and well-integrated with alcohol. A real delight! Finishes with licorice and hints of coca cola. finish: long, mentholated, powerful, woody

31-07-2025 - Rate 9.0 A really great TDL. 16 years and was it 12 in the tropics. This shows in smell and taste. And great value for money. 105 € COR does it again. They also just released a TDL 8 years which is a great release as well. Nose is methanol, alcohol and burnt sugar. Taste wood, herbal, licorice and rubber. One for the shelf 07-08-2025 - Rate 9.0 Still an excellent rum

I had the pleasure of serving on the committee to select this TDL from The colors of rum!!! Fruit and spice notes emerge on the nose, accompanied by a light touch of solvent and licorice that give it liveliness and character. The classic balsamic note, typical of the TDL profile, is not missing. The palate is structured and harmonious, with a good balance between sweetness and spice. Its 63% ABV is perfectly integrated, and the resinous and balsamic component, while present, remains well dosed and never intrusive. The finish is long and persistent, with pleasant returns of toasted wood, cocoa and tobacco, completing an intense and satisfying drink. One of the best TDLs drunk!!!

Superbe tdl, de beaux arômes , une grosse puissance, des fruits rouges, du menthol, des épices … un bon cocktail pour un très bon résultat 🤩 L’attaque un peu franche mais avec une aération de 30 mins c’est plus cool, et une très belle longueur 😍😍

Supertasting with some good friends. Full of red fruits this one, love it. Great value for money!

On sent bien l'alcool au nez. L'attaque en bouche est sur l'alcool et après ce passage les fruits arrivent. Pour moi la première édition Up Spirits #1 et supérieur au #3.

Vůně prijemne technicko lepidlova dobrý matovy trinidad
