TBRC T.D.L Fernandes 1999
Highly praised 1999 TDL for its minty-herbal freshness, balanced wood and cocoa, good alcohol integration and excellent price-performance. A characterful, slightly dirty Trinidad that rewards attentive sipping.
Fans of characterful Trinidad rums who enjoy minty, herbal notes, a touch of “dirty” TDL rubber and cocoa, and want a complex yet still approachable higher-ABV sipper with strong value.

How does this rum taste?
Fresh, minty, characterful Trinidad TDL
If you like classic TDL with a fresher menthol twist, this is a sweet spot: plenty of age and character, some dirty edges, but not as brutal as early‑2000s casks.
Those sensitive to 57% ABV heat, drinkers who dislike menthol/technical notes, or anyone expecting a sweet, caramel-forward Trinidad in the style of easier 40% sippers.

This tdl is delicious. It goes down smoothly. Alcohol perfectly integrated. Great aromas on the nose, which are well reflected in the mouth. The finish is quite long. I love it 😍
Lehce technicke redidlo, v chuti svezi a jemne, lehce matove, velmi příjemné
Found one last sample remainder. In conclusion, a really good bargain for the price at the time with high quality, which was not to be expected. Edit: I still like it and it has a very good PLV. Very pleasing rum at a real bargain.
Exceptionally smooth yet tastey TDL. Very nice.
