How does this rum taste?
The "Trinidad" rum by Compagnie des Indes is a limited release of 295 bottles, distilled at Trinidad's T.D.L distillery. Crafted from molasses in 2000 using a column still, it aged for 16 years and is bottled at cask strength with a 63.6% ABV. Aromas include woody notes with hints of glue, mint, and caramel. The taste is predominantly fruity alongside mint, spices, and subtle yellow fruit nuances. Well-received for its complexity, it offers a harmonious balance of flavors, though some find it lacking an edge.

An initial nose of glue and varnished wood, then fruit, lots of fruit, cooked banana and unripe pineapple. A vegetal side with freshness (menthol?) and flowers. A beautiful explosion of fruit, even flowers. The oak is light, allowing the other aromas to express themselves. The finish is long, on fruit with flowers at the very end. A beautiful fruity and floral rum with a splendid finish.
Vielen Johannes für diese Blind Tasting. #No.5 Nase ordentlich Kräuter Eukalyptus etwas Kleber. Braucht 39min dann macht er etwas auf . Am Gaumen passiert deutlich mehr ... viel Eukalyptus und eine schöne Süße . Etwas Klebstoff auch hier. Am Gaumen auch ein paar getrocknete Pfirsiche und Anis . Sehr Harmonisch.

Palate Round, fresh, wood, light roasted, mint, fruits, light citrus, light earthy, faint smoke. Finish Medium to long, fresh, wood, light citrus, mint, faint caramel, faint tar.
Interessantes TDL-Release, das sich an der Schnittstelle von spanischem Stil und den eher intensiven, fruchtig-minzigen Releases der Post-2000er Ära bewegt. Das Ganze funktioniert an sich gut, allerdings bleibt die karamellige Süsse für meinen Geschmack am Gaumen etwas zu präsent. Das ändert aber nichts daran, dass es sich hierbei um ein als „sehr gut“ einzuordnendes Release handelt.
