Review by Martin Ekrt
As with 2013 I don't recognize TDL, but does it fit DDL ?! Aside from the ambivalence about the destination, it's fine Guyana:-)
Review by Palo - V Poháriku
I love high abv rums, but this one needs few drops of water to calm it down. Still a bit harsh in terms of quality... Didn't finish my sample.
Review by Johannes
Wieder mal sehr hochprozentig. Ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass wieder mal ein Fass vertauscht wurde. Geschmacklich ist das klar ein Rum aus Guyana, am ehesten ein Port Mourant. Mit TDL hat dieser Rum nichts zu tun. Witzig, im Nachgang lese ich die anderen Bewertungen, die mich in meiner Vermutung absolut bestätigen…
Review by Pavel Spacek
Beautiful matte for a bottle under 100e. Although alcohol can be felt, but very drinkable. I recommend it even to beginners for discovering new flavours. Mata from TDL is an unmistakable taste that you will never get tired of.
Review by PF24
It's probably Port Mourant
Review by Rado Vito
Definitely that is not Trinidad. Seems more like young Guyana.
Review by Matej
Last from the Triplet. Aroma, well it is sweet and very medicinal/polish-y at the same time, which makes me sick to be honest. There is a lot of spice, some wood/oak scent and I noticed some fruit there. What is interesting the whole aroma is gentle and I expected it would be much more stronger and sharper. Taste is pretty sharp at the beginning, there is a lot of floral, grassy flavor with almost winey flavor (it makes the whole rum sour and dry at the same time not bad at all). What I do not like is that sweet flavor of chocolate or maybe caramel. Finish is not long enoug, little bit sweety(caramel/honey) and spicy. Definetly the “worst” from the Triplet. I really do not like the aroma of this rum (it is not for me at all), it should be much more stronger and less sweet than it is. I recomended to try the whole triplet if you have chance and try to see/feel/smell the differences.
