Cane Island Jamaica Single Island Blend

Kupferfarbener Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase frischgebackene Vanillebrötchen mit Fruchtsalat auf einem karamellisierten Eichen Brett serviert.
Im Gaumen ein wenig frech und sperrig aber dennoch sehr weich und elegant. Tropische Früchte, Karamell, Vanille und Holz Aromen sin schön ausbalanciert.
Im Abgang kurz ein paar Alkoholnoten aber dann herrlich lange Karamell, Früchte und Vanille.
Ein gut gemachter Alltags Rum, leicht / mittel gesüsst, für Jedermann.

Copper-coloured amber in a glass.
In the nose freshly baked vanilla rolls with fruit salad served on a caramelized oak board.
On the palate a little cheeky and bulky but still very soft and elegant. Tropical fruits, caramel, vanilla and wood aromas are well balanced.
In the finish briefly a few alcohol notes but then wonderfully long caramel, fruits and vanilla.
A well made everyday rum, light / medium sweetened, for everyone.

Rum with typical jamaican funk. Taste is tending to be fruity (hints of oranges maybe) reminding fruit brandys. Aftertaste is sweet chocolate like. Rum is well balance between fruityness and oakyness.
Would be fine mixer but it is suitable for sipping

Färgtonen är guldig. Aromen oj oj här händer det grejer. Banan, tropisk frukt. Påminner väldigt mycket om plantation jamaica, top 2 hittills i kalendern!

Musim rict, ze tohle je bohuzel jeden z lepsich rumu z celeho kalendare. Po odvetrani je ve vuni citit prijemne kandovane ovoce. Chit je sucha a v dozvuku jaou citit orechy.

Duft af en blanding mellem pære og æble. Bringer minder tilbage til min barndom, hvor jeg legede meget i en æbleplantage. Her var en sirlig duft af æbler, som var trådt i stykker og var begyndt duften fra den begyndende rådnelsesproces satte ind. Jeg er ikke umiddelbart tilhænger af æbler, pærer og banan i rom. Smagen er også pære med endnu et strejf af peber. Ikke disideret dårlig, men heller ikke noget at råbe hurra for (15. December 2018)

God och lättdrucken, lite kryddig och vanilj. Inte så tokig.

Strong rum: fruity flavour, with harsch alcohol and long finish with cacao, banana and vanilla. Sweet classic

Not a fan of Jamaican rum usually. This is pretty harsh.

Jamaican rum brings one of the most distinct flavors to the table. So I had some expectations before diving in to this rum. If I hadn´t read the label beforehand, I would not have guessed, that this was a Jamaican rum, and I don´t mean that in a good way.

Nose: Overripe fruit, syrup and some faint notes of rubber
Taste: Citrus, molasses and only a faint note of the trademark Jamaican funkiness
Overall: This did not feel Jamaican at all, and I mean that in a bad way. The funk was gone and replaced by a sweetness that is unusual for Jamaican rum.

Harsh rum, not really suited to anything besides cocktails.

Enjoyed two glasses of Cane Island Jamaica Single Island Blend. Nice and sturdy bottle design. Very reasonably priced at EUR 34 in Europe. Light golden color. Strong funk and plenty of glue straight to the nose and palate when neat sipped. Strong and dry burn at the end. Definitely a real Jamaican funk rum.
