"simply the coolest thing there is from Trinidad TDL in my opinion. I have never experienced such a blatantly authentic tasting fresh and green mint note... as a friend says so beautifully. make an old fashioned with it and it comes out a mint julep. or leave out the mint in the mojito 🤣💥🤤 The longer you drink it, the more notes of lychee, lime juice and zest, Thai mango, iced tea, peach and lots of roasted flavors from the barrel are added, all accompanied by this fantastic mint and the incredibly well-integrated alcohol! For me, definitely the absolute TDL benchmark on the market!"
"Wieder mal eine echte Minz-Bombe von T.D.L! Dazu kommen Lychee, Zimt und etwas Vanille. Am Gaumen intensiv mit viel frischer Minze! Wow, wie krass ist das denn?! Fast schon wie ein Minz-Schnaps (aber in gut!). Wer auf Minze steht kommt hier voll auf seine Kosten! Ein echte Erlebnis."
"Von einem Geheimtipp hat sich dieser T.D.L mit der Zeit und zunehmenden Verkostungen zu einem Hype-Rum entwickelt. Und das völlig zurecht. So ist er prädestinierend für die typische T.D.L. Minze und stellt diese Abfüllung ganz besonders in den Vordergrund. Mir persönlich sogar etwas zu viel. Der Abgang ist sehr lang und die Minz- und Mentholnote hängt einem ewig nach. Ob das eine Mundspülung ersetzen könnte?"
