Chocolate-and-coffee fans who like a Trinidad on the drier side will click with this one. Expect cocoa, hazelnut and creamy cappuccino up front, then it turns woody and spicy with pepper and a bitter-tea edge on the finish. Several tasters call it an "untypical TDL" with unusual chocolate depth. At 56.5% it bites a little, and a few wish it were less sweet.
The community says- Cocoa and hazelnut
- Creamy cappuccino
- But: Sharp for the ABV

The look inside the bottle
How does TCRL T.D.L Trinidad #27 2006 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Chocolatey Trinidad, sweet then dry and woody Well-liked as a relaxed chocolate-forward Trinidad sipper. Most find it starts sweet then dries out; a few say it's straightforward and lacks depth, and the alcohol reads sharp for the strength.

Oh well, I wasn't expecting that. Very tasty Transcontinental Line here in any case. We have some caramel and cocoa on the nose. On the palate there's vanilla and hazelnut, as well as wood and cappuccino.

Strong Trinidad rum with clear, spicy structure. On the nose dry fruits, some vanilla and a fine glue note. On the palate it shows a rather tart profile with wood, spice and slight bitterness, complemented by subtle fruit in the background. The alcohol feels present but not disturbing. Overall a solid, rather dry Trinidad with good intensity but lacking a bit of depth.
Review by Christoph
On the nose, I definitely have to think of mild Cointreau. In the taste then rather coffee and Christmas cookies from the Caribbean (coconut). Rather atypical TDL with neat chocolate.
Review by zabo
Compared to the Rum Runner Trinidad, which I had in my glass at the same time, it is much more pleasant and more clearly Trinidad. But also not a real winner, there are better bottlings from 2006.
Review by Christian Rudt
Beautiful 🍫 charged rum.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
delicious, relaxed Sipping TDL, light mint freshness in the background and in addition creamy cappuccino, milk chocolate, brownies with blackberries and black pepper and some orange peel and neat barrel. First sweet then dry and very creamy.
Review by MarcT
OK, no flaws but not really inspiring as well, would not have been able to attribute this to Trinidad, which can be considered a good thing: I do not like the products of Trinidad Distillers that much. A bit shy on the nose.

Typical Trinidad
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#6741 03.05.2026 Enjoying a few more samples while watching Gold Rush on Max. Price to quality is pretty decent on this release in my mind. A nice nutty rum with some coffee, chocolate, caramel and light honey and spices.
Review by Harald
Color: AmberSmell:Sweet with a surge of vanilla at first sniff.Creamy ... cream soda, caramel as well as orange peel and orange blossom.Taste:Very sweet in the mouth, then becomes creamy and bites as you swallow.Very spicy hot with vanilla, wood, pepper and ginger.Finish:Dry, spicy and woody with caramel.Bitter tea and old wood in the finish.Conclusion:Relatively simple, straightforward and without major weaknesses. 83 points

Good Trinidad
Review by Joël
Alcohol not as well integrated as I think, comes across relatively sharp for the relatively low %. Somehow too sweet for me. Still available 6 years after release at the price of the time with a relatively small production run 🙄.
Review by Johannes
Good Spanish style!
Review by RumTaTa
Beautiful TDL rum with mint aromas. The profile is there but rather flat.Ausgewoge fruit and spice.
Review by primus
Very tasty, strong chocolate and hazelnut notes in the nose and taste. Drier than this description suggests. A good addition to any rum shelf
Review by Jarek
Could be a little less sweet.
Review by Filip Heimerle
Trans line Trinidad 2006 Origin diverse. Spicy. On the palate developing sweetness but ends slightly bitter. 7.9
Review by Richard Krupa

Read full review ›For me, it is definitely a very atypical representative of Trinidad, but pleasantly tuned, I think it will fit perfectly for the upcoming summer. What I have a bit of a problem with is the price, I don't know if I would want to pay 2,500 CZK for such a rum, personally rather less - 1,500 - 1,800 yes - also why I'm glad I chose just a sample on Dramroom.cz.
