How does this rum taste?
- Sehr angenehme Süße im Abgang
- Komplexer Abgang mit einigen Richtungswechseln
- Sehr gute Karamell Noten
This Trinidad Rum for Haromex Dev. from T.D.L, bottled by Bristol, leans into woody, caramel, vanilla, and subtle mint notes. Community tasting leans on "caramel, vanilla, some spices and hints of menthol / mint leaves" (Lot-NAS), and several mention the "holzigen und fruchtigen Einflüssen" (Manuel). A few, like Pavel Spacek, praise it for being "velmi dobre pitelny" (very drinkable), while some find the alcohol not quite perfectly integrated. It's more sweet and less fruit-forward than classic T.D.L bottlings, with occasional comparisons to Panama style. Opinions split on the distinctive sweetness, but few deny its solid, approachable structure.

"Edit: RumX Advent Calendar 2024 Bonus 1 I didn't realize it, but due to the long (involuntary) standing time today I had the dirty Caroni notes with me. I still think it's delicious. A nice TDL for me. Just needs a little time in the glass, but then it's very enjoyable. Edit: Tasted it again on 19.09.23, after I had the Swell Private Garden #4 in my glass before. I find this one a lot better. This one has more power and after a while it unfolds its full range."
"Calendrier de l’Avent RumX, jour 25. Un nez avec de l’alcool, du bois, de la vanille et du sucre brun. S’y ajoute de la banane et un côté herbes sèches. La bouche est agréable et avec de la fraîcheur (menthol) qui n’était pas marquante au nez. Plus de fruits aussi, fruits secs mais aussi fruits tropicaux. La finale est courte même si quelques arômes persistent plus longtemps : boisé amer et sucré brun. Un rhum plus complexe qu’il n’y paraît au premier abord."
"Very beautiful, rare TDL with an independent profile. Complex finish with some changes of direction. Good PLV"
"I rarely had 2006 T.D.Ls, as well as bottlings from Bristol. These T.D.L. also taste very rare. Blindly, I would have put these more in the Spanish direction. I still like them, but nobody should expect a fruity micro-bomb here. Cask 472/2 is very creamy on the palate and somewhat woody and bitter on the finish, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Cask 472/1, on the other hand, is somewhat more linear and even less exciting."
