Zéro Nine Spirits T.D.L Steampunk 2 2006

Most enjoy its sweet, pastry-like caramel and fruit profile with good drinkability; critics find it a bit light, bitter and not very “TDL-typical”. Overall seen as a solid, accessible sipper.

    How does this rum taste?

    Dessert-like TDL, closer to Foursquare
    Who is this rum for?

    If you enjoy dessert-leaning Foursquare or approachable Spanish-style rums and are TDL-curious, this fits well—just don’t expect the minty, heavy TDL profile of 2001–2003 vintages.

    Not really suitable for

    TDL purists seeking menthol and red fruits, or drinkers who dislike dry, slightly bitter finishes and expect big cask-strength intensity.

    Aroma

    Woody Cream Toffee Vanilla Nutty

    -un beau boisé, quelques fruits confits… une pâtisserie à la groseille ? - les fruits du TDL sont encore la, bien marqués, plutôt jaunes ? Pêche et fraise ? Les épices sont aussi de la partie pour relever le tout ! - Finale : caramel assez amer, un peu de beurre également ! Seule déception, mon menthol habituel nez pas la, sinon on a vraiment de très beaux fruits, c’est ultra gourmand, gras, ça tartine bien le palai

    Globalement j'ai bien aimé. On retrouve bien les fruits rouges, le boisé et le côté caramel en bouche qui me plaisent bien. On pourrait penser à du foursquare La final en moyennement longue et se poursuit sur di caramel/épice/boisé Peut être pas du classique trinidad mais il me plaît bien 😀

    Un TDL qui se situe dans la partie douce de l’archétype de la distillerie. Le nez offre de belles fragrances pâtissières sur le toffee et le caramel, les épices douces (vanille, poivre) et les noix rôties. On décèle un peu de fruits rouges et une fraîcheur discrète qui rappelle les profils plus lourds de TDL. C’est un profil plus facile d’accès. L’attaque en bouche revient vers ce côté caramélisé et mielleux d’une grande gourmandise. Les fruits sont également plus présents, notamment la pêche, l’ananas et les fruits secs qui donnent un peu de fraîcheur en bouche. Le profil reste d’une grande rondeur avec le chêne légèrement pimenté, le cuir, le cacao, la vanille et les noix. L’alcool est bien intégré. La finale est plus tranchante avec le reste du profil : les tanins, le cuir, le tabac à cigare, les notes fumées et boisées apportent quelque chose de plus sec et rustre en fin de bouche. Si les fruits sont quasiment disparus, le chocolat noir et le caramel beurré prennent la relève pour un soupçon de gourmandise. Peut-être pas le profil le plus extravagant qu’il soit, mais sûrement un TDL plus grand public qui permettra de faire découvrir le genre.

    First impression of sampling. Quite nice, but not a great runaway to the top. Alcohol well integrated and quite drinkable due to the 58%. More will follow in peace. Well, after tasting it again, I don't think it's that bad. Stick to my first impression, it tastes good.
