Thompson Bros. T.D.L Error 502 Bad Gateway 2008
Most tasters land around "good but brash" on this young, cask-strength TDL. The fruit Trinidad is known for peeks through — banana, tropical fruit, a clear mint streak — but copper, metal and a medicinal phenol edge crowd it at 61%. Several reviewers say a generous splash of water is what finally pulls it into balance; neat, it's hot and a little sharp.
- Signature TDL fruit
- Distinct mint note
- Real complexity

Aggregated from 12 community reviews.
Hot, minty TDL that wants water Liked, not loved. People find real complexity and that signature TDL fruit and mint, but the alcohol sits loud and metallic — most agree it needs a lot of water.

Review by Lot-NAS
The alcohol is pretty intense but with some water - and by that I mean lot - you get quite a decent TDL and it feels nice and balanced. Drinking this neat would be a waste.
Review by kargoles
Un trinidad légèrement trop alcooleux mais bien marqué. Si on aime les watts il envoie et reste bon sinon il vaut mieux s’a
Review by Johannes
Beautiful complexity! A little unrounded in the finish and too much column style. But otherwise really good and drinkable.
Review by JFehr
Angenehm komplex. Mit spannenden geschmacklichen Anspielungen. Warm und rund

Drop of water opened it up, reduced the brashnsss
Review by Mentalo
Alkohol nicht gut eingebunden. Wenig spannend mit bisschen Beerenfruchtnote, leichte Süße, im Abgang etwas rauchig. Da gibt es imo deutlich bessere T.D.Ls
Review by Henry Davies
It’s an interesting rum from Thompson Bros. A relatively young and fairly brash rum from TDL bottled at 13 years. The nose is fairly typical with copper and metallic notes and little in the way of fruit, mouth again metal with earth and wet root notes and a hint on salty brine. The finish is medium length and a bit thin but with more interesting layers including soap, vegetation and cloves. It is not a super impressive rum but interesting enough to try and while not impressive not disasterous across any dimension and hard to complain for the price
