T.D.L Wagemut Special Edition 2020 2006

These rums show the variety of a subsequent barrel aging step.

Best for: fans of sweet, Madeira-finished sipping rum
Well-liked across the board — a rich, dessert-leaning Trinidad rum with a well-integrated proof. A few tasters find the sweet Madeira wine notes a touch too dominant.


Best for: People curious about vermouth cask finishes and cocktail experiments
Divisive. Most agree the vermouth dominates and the rum sits in the passenger seat — some find it fascinating, others dull or too herbal neat. A few swear by it in a rum Manhattan.


Best for: People who like sweet, dessert-leaning sippers and the coconut-chocolate profile
Well-made, easy sipper that tastes like coconut-and-chocolate candy with a spicy rye finish. Most enjoy it; a few say it's a bit too sweet and not fruity enough.

Best for: Fans of high-ester Fiji and Jamaican funk
Widely seen as underrated and a real value pick. Many love how the New Yarmouth finish adds fruit, though some feel it overshadows the Fiji and the alcohol runs a bit hot.

Best for: sherry-cask fans and dried-fruit lovers
The recurring verdict: a rare CDI win where the sherry finish stays well integrated rather than drowning the Demerara. Most call it complex and rounded, if slightly hot.

Best for: Foursquare fans who like sherry-finished, oaky sippers
A high-quality sherry-finished Foursquare with chocolate, dried fruit and oak. Most rate it strongly; the recurring note is that it doesn't break away from the rest of the ECS line.

Best for: People wanting a dry, sugar-free everyday sipper with port influence
Loved as a low-cost, no-added-sugar everyday sipper with genuine port and oak character. The recurring gripe: it drinks hot and peppery for 46%, and the finish can lean bitter.

Best for: People who like sweet, fruity, port-influenced sippers
Most find it a relaxed, fruity port-finished sipper that's easy to like. The catch a few name: it turns quite sweet and a bit short, which flattens the blend underneath.
