    How does this rum taste?

    • Great vanilla and chocolate notes
    • Rich caramel sweetness
    • Long finish with complex flavors

    The "Trinidad" is a robust 16-year-old rum from the T.D.L distillery, selected by Schotman’s Barrel Selection. Distilled from molasses through a column still in 2006 and cask strength bottled at 62% ABV, it showcases rich vanilla, chocolate, woody, and roasted notes. Users appreciate its sweet, caramel taste and hints of coffee and chocolate, though some find alcohol integration uneven. The profile is reminiscent of indulgent treats like chocolate and caramel but lacks the complexity or fruitiness of other T.D.L releases, leading to mixed responses. While its sugary notes can overwhelm, this rum is acknowledged for its distinct and unique character.

    "Solider, seichter TDL. Könnte blind auch spanischer Stil sein. Alkohol nicht ganz perfekt integriert."

    "Creamy on the palate with milk chocolate, vanilla and wood. There are also some artificial fruits akin to those in energy drinks. Somewhat unique… 🤔"

    "Im Abgang sehr alkoholisch, etwas undefinierbares Profil. Sehr viel Column. Geht in Richtung Foursquare."
