How does this rum taste?
The "Exception" is a 24-year-old rum from the T.D.L distillery in Trinidad, bottled by Famille Ricci. Distilled in 2000 from molasses, and boasting an ABV of 56.2%, it is praised for its fruity and tropical nose, with hints of woody undertones and pineapple. The palate delivers a vibrant tropical fruit flavor rounded with a wood and minty freshness, leading to a citrus finish. Users have noted the rum's fresh aroma and long finish, but with some hinting at an underwhelming ending. Overall, it is regarded as a well-balanced, fruit-forward rum, offering rich, aromatic complexity for enthusiasts seeking a refined experience. The RumX community appreciates its intricate profile yet finds room for improvement in depth and finish.

Notes issues du Whisky Live Paris 2024 - à revoir et approfondir. Un TDL ultra fruité, très gourmand, mais je n'ai pas retrouvé le menthol cher à mon coeur. Plus abordable et sage que ceux que je bois habituellement, même si toujours très bon. Photo pourrie, mon iphone a perdu la tête :)
Un rhum goûté au Whisky Live à Paris en 2024. Un nez très fruité, tutti frutti, avec un beau côté floral et du bois présent mais pas envahissant. Les fruits explosent aussi en bouche, les fleurs sont moins marquées. La finale est un peu décevante avec moins de fruits et pas très longue non plus. Un très beau TDL mais avec quelques limitations.
Wl 24 - good 2000 (salad of yellow fruits, a bit hint of blackcurrent) Sadly rather flat on the finish
