Most love its minty, agricole-like character and good integration at 57.8%. Critics find it sharp, woody and “not really TDL”. Consensus: a distinctive, well-made, slightly polarizing sipper.
Fans of dry, grassy agricole-style rums who enjoy minty, herbal notes and want a quirky Trinidad bottling that rewards attention at higher ABV.

How does Rum Shark T.D.L Angostura 2013 taste?
Agricole-style curveball from Trinidad
If you enjoy Martinique-style agricoles or minty, herbal profiles, this is a cool Trinidad oddball; but if you want classic TDL caramel sweetness, it’ll feel off-target.
Those expecting classic sweet Angostura/TDL, beginners wary of vegetal profiles, or drinkers sensitive to some alcohol bite and wood bitterness.

8,4:On the nose, the first impression we get is typical agricole with flowery, herbal notes, some anise, grass, fruity with citrus, yellow fruits and roasted wood, spicy, the sugarcane is juicy and mineral. On aeration, the spices are more intensive with some clove, cinnamon, vanilla.The sugarcane is waxy and minty.There is a kiwi and dried fruits like apricots, figs and some walnut. 8,5:On the palate, the attack is typically agricole with herbal, minty and tea notes, fruity with yellow fruits and raspberry, the sugarcane is juicy, honeyed and mineral, tasty with caramelized pastry.The wood is spicy and nutty, dry. After resting the rum, tropical fruits, citrus arise with some mango and pineapple.It becomes a bit bitter, waxy with rubber.There are also some flowery notes with geranium. 8,5:The finish is long, dry, earthy, a bit bitter with all the agricole attributes mentioned above...Very tasty.. Angostura?Nope.Some mistake with filling?Probably.Very tasty agricole, possibly Martinique, I would say, strong sugarcane and all agricole atributes... Edit:12.10.25
What? Tastes like agricole from Martinik. Very good, however, it is TDL?
Good rum, but like I'm drinking agricole?! SJ, Karukera...? Or is it just an ultra-ordinary TDL?
Auto-translatedKann eigentlich kein TDL sein. Ich glaube, da wurde ein Fass vertauscht. Geschmacklich klar ein Agricole-Profil mit floralen, grünen Noten. Aber insgesamt nicht schlecht, der Rhum!
