Valinch & Mallet T.D.L Traditional Rum 2009 14yr 51,3%
The Traditional Rum from Trinidad's T.D.L distillery, bottled by Valinch & Mallet, is a 14-year-old spirit distilled from molasses. It presents a light yet fruity nose with subtle woody and vanilla undertones. Consistently noted for its woody and sweet palate, this rum offers flavors of orange and warm spices. User feedback indicates an unexpected sweetness, often perceived as artificial, and a distinct absence of minty or traditional T.D.L characteristics. The rum's finish is described as medium-length, with subdued hints of nuts and fruits. It provides a rounded experience but lacks typical complexity or depth, often leaving a sweet impression.

“Round TDL, nice velvety texture. It lacks the recognition value and the edges, but the rum has a high quality.”

“I can't quite put my finger on what it is about this rum that bothers me. Is it the artificial sweetness? Or the unexpected absence of mint? The rum isn't bad, but it's not really good either. It just doesn't deliver for me, especially not as a TDL. Too bad.”
