CDI Destileria Sofa Latino (Venezuela)
You wouldn't guess this is an independent bottling — it drinks like a friendly beginner rum. Sweet from nose to finish, with caramel, chocolate, dried mango and a bit of orange peel sitting behind plenty of wood and spice. At 40% it's soft and very approachable. One taster found it only worked in a cocktail; others happily sipped it and rated the sweetness well judged.

- Soft and easy

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Hinweis: Tätigkeit bei Perola GmbH (Spirituosenbranche), teilweise berufliche Involvierung bei bewerteten Abfüllungen. Alle Bewertungen sind meine persönliche, unbezahlte Meinung. Leckerer sehr runder 4y junger Rum aus Venezuela. Neu-Auflage vom alten Latino, allerdings ohne Guatemala. Sehr zugänglich und einsteigerfreundlich. Angenehme Noten von Schokolade, tropischen Früchten, Honig und getrockneter Mango und Kaffee. Gefällt sehr gut! 15g Zucker Dosage pro Liter sind gut integriert und nicht zu aufdringlich. Für 26€ wirklich ein fairer Deal.

#5788 29.09.2025 Day three of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. This is also a very sweet rum, but it does have nice floral notes along sugarcane, caramel, orange and some chocolate.
Review by Skyfly
Kleines CDI Core Range X-Tasting: von Nase bis Abgang sehr süß/ karamellig mit viel Holz und Gewürzen. In Nase und Abgang zudem etwas Orange (-nschale), jedoch eher im Hintergrund. Für einen 4-jährigen Venezuelaner sicher nicht schlecht, aber nur im Cocktail zu gebrauchen.
