How does this rum taste?
Mature TDL with minty, dirty charm
If you like mature, slightly dirty Trinidad or lighter Caroni and enjoy whisky‑style structure, this is a great pick—just give it plenty of time in the glass to open up.
Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers wanting bold sweetness or heavy funk; some may find it too restrained or slightly diluted in intensity.

Very nice profile. Like a light Caroni with notes of mint.

Much rounder on the nose versus the both Cadenhead‘s. Less harshness and umami notes with rounded edges. Vanilla is more accentuated in this one with a vanilla creme vibe to it. Also very well balanced on the palate with fruits, crème brûlée and woodiness. All working very well together.
