Trinidad
Trinidad: iconic Trinidad rum, tropical aging and characterful Caribbean rum traditions
From the oil-scented docks of Port of Spain to lush cane fields, Trinidad rum carries a signature balance of power and polish. Tropical heat and steady sea breezes accelerate maturation, layering molasses richness with notes of tar, leather and citrus-mint depending on the marque. Expect intensity from Caroni-style “HTR” and a sleeker, menthol-tinged profile from modern TDL bottlings.
RumX hosts 1,217 Trinidad expressions with 18,138 community reviews and a strong 8.5/10 median rating. Members praise legendary Caroni releases (often 9.0+/10) while noting TDL’s eucalyptus, tobacco and orchard-fruit elegance. Accessible blends like Angostura 1919 sit in the 7–8/10 range, and spiced bottlings can be divisive. Explore it all on the world’s largest rum platform—powered by real drinkers.
