    RumX members love this Trinidad 2009 for its classic TDL coolness: menthol and mint lift sweet caramel and peaches, with eucalyptus, black tea and gentle oak.

    A rum tasted at the GRF in 2024, CoR masterclass and with friends. A nose of wood, caramel, tropical fruit, honey and light oak. The attack is lively, with aromas dominating a well-integrated alcohol. Spices, much more than on the nose, and a slight tar. The finish is moderately long, but too dominated by honey and wood. An atypical TDL, sweeter and above all darker and less fruity than usual.

    CoR-Tasting GRF13: Very minty fresh TDL with some herbal notes. Alcohol is clearly noticeable and present. All in all an appealing bottling, but it doesn't come close to the 2001-2003 vintages. It should have been given a little more time to develop

    Beautiful intense and versatile T.D.L nose. I mainly find eucalyptus, red fruits, mint and spice. The initially pungent alcohol disappears quickly. The palate is also beautifully intense with the floral notes in the foreground. The aromas all continue in the finish. Dryness and slight bitterness are added here. A very typical 2009 T.D.L, with passably integrated alcohol.

    Un TDL de plaisir qui a plus d’un arôme dans sa robe. Le nez est assez doux sur les épices (poivre, piment doux, vanille, réglisse), le cuir, le boisé et les notes sucrées (caramel, sucre brun, popcorn) mais dévoile peu à peu les arômes typiques de la distillerie : le menthol, l’eucalyptus, le thé noir, les fleurs, les fruits (pêche, cassis) parfument les narines. Un profil aguicheur et agréable. L’attaque en bouche passe un nouveau cap d’intensité avec des notes chargées de menthol, d’essence et de goudron. Les épices et les notes salées viennent avec le boisé rôti et le caramel brun dans un deuxième temps. On retrouve également les fruits secs, les pêches, les fruits rouges et le thé noir. Le profil est frais mais sec, avec une texture huileuse. L’alcool est bien intégré à l’ensemble. La finale est longue, mélangeant le registre de la rondeur des épices et du sucre brun aux notes plus intenses sur le menthol, les notes minérales et limite terpéniques. Les fruits secs, la pêche et les fruits rouges donnent un peu de gourmandise à cette finale sèche et tannique. Un joli TDL qui se boit très bien pour son Millésime et son âge.
