The Wild Parrot T.D.L Trinidad 2002 20yr 59,1%

RX12655 Excellent Single Cask Above 250€
“Beautifully balanced rum with complex fruity notes and a smoky finish.”

The Trinidad 2002 T.D.L is an intricate rum that offers a double-faced experience. With an aroma characterized by varnish, herbal tones, and refreshing fruity hits of papaya and lime it makes a strong initial impression. Its taste takes a darker tone, featuring robust layers of roasted accents, tobacco, chocolate, caramel, and woodiness that add complexity. The undercurrent of tropical fruits and dry woody notes merge with a subtle sweetness, culminating in a long aftertaste of dried fruit. This 20-year matured rum is a mix of power and delicacy and is universally acclaimed for its perfectly balanced blend of intense and gourmet flavors. Its eloquent finish is fresh and fruity, yet intensely dark with hints of spice, dark chocolate, and subtly smoky notes, making it a delight for any rum aficionados.

“A nicely balanced TDL with nice spices, fruit and a nice caramel and chocolate topping. The empty glass delivers even better flavours once its been standing for a while. A bottle hard to get already and if you get a chance you should give it a go. Price to quality is pretty good.”

“A rum with a double face!Very citrusy and vegetal in the nose and instead in the taste very dark with lots of wood, dark chocolate and a smoky/carbonized part to act as a side but never invasive!At times it reminds me of monymusk 1997 begnoni!The best thing is that it has a crazy balance!”

“T.D.L is on a roll at the moment, establishing itself as a worthy successor to Caroni, its defunct neighboring distillery. This rum is reminiscent of Trinidad's terroir, with a very expressive nose: aromatic herbs, varnish, rubber, roasted and woody notes for the intense side, then exotic fruits (papaya, passion fruit, pineapple, blackcurrant) and citrus (lime) for the gourmet side. A fine balance between power and delicacy. The profile is extremely fruity on the palate: blackcurrant, papaya, maracuja, passion fruit, lime and kumquat follow one another to awaken the palate. Menthol, coffee, dark chocolate, leather and well-melted oak follow. Caramel, spices (licorice) and dark chocolate darken the very fresh profile of the first moments on the palate. The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is long, fruity and fresh, opening onto a basket of exotic fruits, herbs and menthol. The finish is darker, intense and dry, with wood, spices, dark chocolate and slightly empyreumatic notes. A very fine, extremely tasty T.D.L.”
