Sip this one neat and the split becomes obvious: the nose promises a lot — rubber, mint, burnt sugar, that dirty TDL character with a whiff of camphor — but the palate turns thin and watery, like it was reduced a touch too far. There's fresh minty lime, cut grass and a smoky note several tasters pinned to a whisky cask. Interesting, just not fully "rumig."

How does Samaroli Trinidad Rum 1999 taste?

Lovely nose, thin watery palate Great nose, letdown palate. Most agree the aromas promise more than the thin, watery mouth delivers; a couple would have loved a higher ABV to give it body.

The nose is not bad at all! On the palate, unfortunately, little body, short finish, alcoholic, slight smoky whisky notes. I could imagine that it was aged in a whisky cask.

Samaroli is always a thing for me, often the price-performance ratio doesn't really fit, but they usually look nice; only I don't really care 😉, it should taste good. Let's see... Nose: intense, sweet-fruity and spicy. I get lime and grapefruit with a somewhat artificial sweetness of orange syrup. All accompanied by soap and an apple vinegar note. Also a subtle smoky note of burnt sugar can be detected. Behind the vinegar hides some mint. Palate: initially a bit restrained, almost thin. Starts somewhat musty, but then arcs to lightly fruity-spicy. There is lime peel and old mint with freshly cut grass. Everything somehow dull and earthy. Only the salty-minty lime freshness pleases me quite well. The nose promised more.

On the nose you can place it as Trinidad. Very thin on the palate, far too watery.

I am positively surprised! Very tasty rum with ... yes: a distinct cannabis note! 😋😋😳🤣 Reminds me a lot of the One Time Limited Trinidad from Plantation. But it only cost a third of the price ... 🙄 Because of the unfavorable PLV, this great rum unfortunately only gets 85 points, otherwise it would have been 89.

Geile Nase, schwacher Gaumen. Zuerst eindeutig Trinidad-TDL, minzig-dreckig und fast ein bisschen caronieske Anklänge. Verspricht in der Nase einiges und lockt mit einer süßlichen Note. Am Gaumen leider vor allem überraschend dünn, verwässert, auch wenn auch hier etwas TDL-Charakter erkennbar ist. Dieser wird dann von einer süßlich-rauchigen Note überlagert, die ein Whisky-Fass vermuten lässt (im Gegensatz zum üblichen Bourbon-Cask). Könnte für Freunde des Whiskys durchaus ein spannender Einstieg in den Rum sein, als Rumfreund ist er mir dann doch etwas zu wenig „rumig“, als dass es mir wirklich gefällt. Aber wieder mal spannend und etwas anderes, beim Rum wird’s zum Glück nicht langweilig! Bekommt an Tagen mit anderer Laune vielleicht auch ein paar Punkte mehr.

A well-made TDL, a nice reduction that would surely have been more successful with a few degrees more. It’s a change from the very high strengths generally found at this distillery. It would make a good entry to the Trinidad line-up. NOSE honey, yellow and white fruits, a bit of spice, wildflowers, a fruit brandy aspect. PALATE fresh green apples, tart. Then the characteristic very fresh menthol aroma, on the camphor of tiger balm. A bit of fresh brine. Not evolving but pleasant.

Je suis partagé sur ce rhum. Autant il est plaisant au nez, autant je reste sur ma faim à la dégustation, d’une part car il manque de watts, d’autre part car je le trouve « léger » comme dilué… Après c’est pas mauvais, faudrait pas délirer en disant ça… mais il manque des petites choses pour être « aboutie » à mon goût

Trinidad breaks the British-Caribbean mould. It makes clean, column-distilled rum closer to the Spanish style than to the heavy pot-still funk of Jamaica or Guyana, and it is home to Angostura and to Caroni, the most coveted closed distillery in rum.
