Of the dirty TDLs, 2001 is the most prominent vintage. The 2001s are the dirtiest, 2002 is fresher and 2003 is yellow fruitier. In crosstasting, I tried the RA, TCRL, Nobilis, Plantation Antipodes and the new Rasta Morris. The rums are incredibly similar - esp. the Nobilis and RM are barely distinguishable. The RA stands out because of the dilution, the Plantation is clearly marked by the cognac barrel - it moves it closer to the 2003s - and the TCRL is the freshest, with an unusual herbal note. The TCRL is somewhat reminiscent of the 2002s.The RM is the dirtiest of my session with the Nobilis. In addition to the typical menthol and mint notes, there is tar, wood, toasty caramel and tobacco. The RM is a touch more elegant than the Nobilis, bit finer the caramel a bit sweeter. The yellow fruits are present as with the Nobilis, but in the background. If I had to distinguish the Nobilis from the RM, I would point to the smell of damp cellar (musty, cardboard) in the Nobilis versus a wood paneled gentleman's room. A difference that is probably mostly imaginary. Both are even more wood driven than the other two. Perhaps these rums should not be aged much. In the mouth the RM is a shade more interesting compared to the Nobilis it is super heavy in menthol and brings the tart citrus notes that I also find in the RA and TCRL. just the grapefruit that joins the TDL Falernum in the finish is just classy. For me on the same level as the Nobilis - maybe half a point better. Very, very good.

Yet another TDL that’s right up my alley. Dried fruit, tobacco, mint, wood, a little dirt and a touch of caramel. A very good rum even though the mint is a touch too present. I bought a bottle after having a glass from my sample.

first impression: the has real power 💪 on the nose fruity (dried fruit) and dirty at the same time, and also a little direction baking mix and chewing tobacco. This continues on the palate, except that charred barrel is added. The alcohol is already quite sharp and present, but not yet to the point of being unpleasant. Again, a real 2001 TDL highlight!

Great nose! Very fresh, dirty, earthy. Complex and multilayered. Powerful.In the mouth he then packs properly, there you can also feel the alcohol. Complex, spicy.Long, furry finish.Super rum, but definitely nothing cozy. Thanks to Bonn!!

This is how it should be..., on the nose the full load of mint/menthol, paired with dried fruit and something dirty. Delightful, it can go on like this...and I am not disappointed, the palate and finish continue in the same flavor play and intensity. This TDL would have deserved an excellent if the alcohol was a little better integrated. But that is already the only downer! Class bottling, of these 2001s gladly more

Wonderful nose .... Wonderful fresh minty , dark dried fruits slightly dirty (tar, tobacco,leather ) Alcohol relatively well/medium integrated in the nose. On the palate you can feel the alcohol more clearly (doesn't bother me though) .Full power mint , spices .... Leather ,tobacco, wood and some fruit (plum, cassis,dark berries) .The makes real alarm in the mouth Long Mentholiger finish. Great bottling 👍Thanks mto75 for the sampl.

Compared to 2003 single cask nation which i just had, this one is less delicate, main notes are similar, however on palate the menthol overpowers the floral notes which were more prominent there, fresh mint plays a second fiddle. Dried fruit and smoke also here, in addition i find more vanilla and caramel which i didn't pick up as much in the other one. On the other hand i don't get any obivous coffee notes. I would rate them equally. Thanks Alex for sharing a sample.

Probably the best TDL I’ve had so far. There’s just so much to discover, unbelievable. Sweet pastry, mint, wood, fruit, leather, something dirty in the mix. A drop of water brings the flavors out even more. Just wow…

Am newbie to TDL's minty vintages and today tasted the current RDL 2002 against this Rasta Morris 2001. For me, the RDL is more "genuinely" minty ... that is, mainly after Moroccan mint. The Rasta Morris, however, first mentholig and "monymuskig" before the mint comes. This I mean completely value-free ... like both.

A lot of wood, a lot of fresh eucalyptus gum, slightly bitter with intense citrus peel notes. Overall, however, it is definitely too woody and especially too bitter in the finish...

Great bottling! TDL 2001 means you have to be a bit on peppermint candy, which fell after unpacking in the workshop on a gasoline / oil-soaked rag. Topic sustainability.

I just love the mint. I like it really well. Since one almost regrets to share 😇😋. Look forward to the direct comparison with the Nobilis. From memory, the RM could be a little rougher. Overall, the rum has already been described very well here. Very very good TDL. Will need more of it.

Powerful menthol notes instantly after pouring the sample. After 20-odd minutes a different profile started emerging. Wafts of dried fruits and oily orange skin. Sweet maple with a hint of cinnamon. Rounded off by lightly toasted wood pellets and floral tea. On the palate dried fruits, neroli and charred barrel. There’s some blackened caramel bitter sweetness. Again menthol, but this time evolving into petroleum. Gas station notes, without being overpowering or overly dirty. And eventually more floral tea accompanied by a spearmint eucalyptus blend. The finish is very long as I could taste minty petrol for atleast an hour. Price/quality is high at release price.

Great TDL with tropical heaviness and spice and a mint note that is not too dominant.

Nose: Full pipe furniture polish, mint, mango, wood, gooseberry, kiwi, cassis, leather, overripe heavy and lush, juicy strawberries, diesel, caramel toasty, raisins stewed in honey, fresh hay, great nose! Palate: the powerful nose continues uncompromisingly and perfectly: caramelized peaches, mirabelles with quite a bit of acacia honey, Elijah Craig or Heaven Hill bourbon, banana and coconut sugar/maroon like from Jack Daniels or Dickel, very interesting. Or from the intense, Texas Garrison Brothers after all? Anyway, great bourbon influence, just right! Thin leather and BBQ sauce on oak table, tar, ash, soy sauce, burnt strawberries, hemp, intense and full in your face, extremely long finish and just really, really good - fully loaded with extremely complex aromatics and very long and forever astringent finish, on point! Fireworks! Insanity! Top class! What a dram! Even after many minutes and a few sips of water, I still taste mint, hay, honey, sugar cane, grass, gooseberry and leather. Clearly ahead of the Plantation 2001 Trinidad Antipodes and due to the better nose and also the more complex palate (great cask selection!) clearly ahead of the also very good Rom de Luxe 2002. Overall today: Rasta Morris>Rom de Luxe minimal >Plantation 2001 virtually on par with <> Cadenheads Green Label Trinidad 18 yo. which would probably have been better than the Plantation without dilution > Tamosi TDL 2000 which is completely losing out here, no chance. 2001 2003 similar mint and diesel and polish and oak best2000 2002 similar less mint hardly any diesel less polish and less oak. Style Spanish more typical but very nice and clearly more powerful than what is otherwise known from this style.

Alcool très bien intégré ! Très doux et rond avec un fruit bien présent. Un vrai bonheur. Manque un peu de longueur
