How does this rum taste?
Produced in Trinidad by T.D.L and selected by Famille Ricci, this 31-year-old, cask-strength rum (64.5% ABV) captivates with its complexity and depth. Distilled from molasses in 1991, it's noted for its enticing aroma of candied and nutty notes combined with spice and hints of tar. The palate displays a dry, woody profile with dried fruits and spices, echoing a Caroni-like influence. Rave reviews cite its long finish and illustrative aging, with suggestions it embodies a blend of TDL and Caroni characteristics. This limited release, with only 195 bottles, offers a unique experience for connoisseurs, highlighting both its strength and balance without overwhelming. With a pleasing integration of alcohol, it stands as a noteworthy investment for collectors.

Excellent t.d.l., with an indulgent nose of caramel, vanilla and chocolate mixed with a touch of shoe polish and leather. On the palate, it's just as delicious, with a nice dryness on the tongue, and tropical fruits are also present. Dark chocolate mixed with a wilder side gives this juice a very interesting profile. You could stay for hours. Very long finish.
This is not a cheap rum but we'll worth the present price tag. A nicely balanced rum with a light dry touch to the palate. I may have to add a bottle to my collection. A very old lady indeed and a good one.
Relativ dreckig und ganz leicht an caroni erinnernd. Dazu ungewöhnlich wenig Holz für einen 31y alten Rum. Sehr mild und ausgewogen, fast schon süffig! Alkohol top integriert. Lecker! Aber nicht unbedingt 400€+ wert. Dennoch der wohl bis dato für mich beste richtig alte "TDL" den ich probiert hatte. Würde mich nicht wundern wenn hier ein paar Schlücke Caroni mit rein gewandert wären! 😃
