Schotman’s Barrel Selection T.D.L Trinidad 2006 16yr 62%

RX15202 Very good Column Still Rum Single Cask <250€
“Bold T.D.L rum: sweet and slightly spicy charm.”

This distinctive Trinidad rum, distilled at T.D.L and bottled by Schotman’s Barrel Selection, boasts a bold 62% ABV. With rich notes of vanilla, milk chocolate, and roasted wood, this 16-year-aged column still rum delights with luxurious layers of caramel, dark chocolate, and subtle coffee. The cask strength enhances the complex palate, though some find the alcohol integration imperfect. This expressive rum captures admirers through its gourmand aroma and indulgent flavor profile, yet it polarizes with an unexpectedly sweet edge. While critics note a missing fruity complexity expected from T.D.L, it remains a satisfying, if straightforward, dram for seasoned enthusiasts. Embrace this intriguing exploration of Trinidadian craftsmanship for both its strengths and nuanced character.
