    Solid on the palate, a rather classic rum, the typical profile of the 2001-2003 vintages is only slightly perceptible. Overall, however, rather unspectacular.

    Auto-translated

    I don't think it's that bad, but TDL is usually better. For me, the nose consists mainly of whisky, otherwise some alcohol is still recognizable. The palate is then very sharp-edged, otherwise perhaps some chocolate and caramel are recognizable.

    Auto-translated

    On the nose the profile is distinctly different to the 2000s TDLs. Less complexity with a more Spanish style showing. Caramel, some chocolate accompanied by some fruits. Alcohol is a bit to present even after plenty time in the glas. Overall not bad, but also not overly exiting. On the palate, this one is very smooth to drink - to frame it positively. The rum feels watered down leaving a rather unexciting profile. Sweetness, some chocolate with hints of tropical fruits.

    Phew, so if all TDLs from the 1999 vintage, which I've never tasted before, are as whisky-like as this bottling, then the vintage can stay stolen from me. No comparison to the bottlings of the following millennium.
