Nobilis Fernandes No.41 1999
Mint and menthol lead here, wrapped in dry oak, leather and a medicinal, tarry edge that says Trinidad from the first sip. Twenty-four years has traded youthful fruit for roasted, spicy, brown-sugar depth with a "hint of dirt" garage note several tasters loved. Give it air and a big glass. At 65.5% the alcohol is present, and the finish turns very astringent.
The community says- Minty menthol depth
- Roasted woody complexity
- Keep in mind: Very astringent finish

How does Nobilis Fernandes No.41 1999 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Minty, woody, medicinal aged Trinidad People who love aged TDL rate this highly for its minty, woody, medicinal profile. The common gripes: a slightly hot, not-quite-integrated alcohol and a drying, astringent finish.

GRF13: This is a heavy, very intense TDL. While some fruit is still perceptible on the nose, it increasingly disappears, as does the fresh minty note. Instead, a spicy, roasted profile emerges. The alcohol is not perfectly integrated. A good, but not first-class TDL

Review by Eric Frechin
This rum needs a good airing before tasting. Quite a fan of tdl, I really liked this profile! The thing that surprised me was the integration of the alcohol, which never takes over the taste. There are far fewer fruity notes than in some younger tdl's, but the ageing process has done a fine job on the toasted/woody/burnt sugar notes, with a nice evolution towards a garage feel. This suits me more than well.

#4609 10.02.2024 tasting event at the Nobilis Warehouse, Haderslev. Nose Light wood, faint roasted, medium fruity, mint, light caramel, medicinal. Palate Wood, light roasted, tannins, medium fruity, medium dry, anise, mint. Finish Medium to long, wood, tannins, mint, faint tar, dry, raisin.
Review by Timo Groeger
To celebrate the Advent calendar kill, it can then be a decent rum On the nose, we have mint and fruit, the whole thing is very medicinal. On the palate we then have lots of mint as well as some wood and chocolate.
Review by Philip M. 🇧🇪
Tasted @ Salon du Rhum 2024 and at Stijn's place. Every time I taste this TDL Fernandes from Nobilis, I'm falling in love again. This is exactly what I need from a TDL. Beautiful and super tasty rum. Would love to have a full bottle of this juice. Highly recommended!
Review by Frank
Brought as a small sample from the 13th GRF, I'm only now getting around to tasting this beautiful, ripe TDL ... Nose: very interesting and unexpectedly different for a rum from Trinidad. Restrained and yet complex. It smells really old: old cardboard, old tobacco and dried mushrooms. It is also herbal and spicy with dried mint and fennel. The mint gives it a certain freshness. Something different, I like it, 8.9 Palate: ripe and full-bodied, yet smooth. The mint is very intense here, but quickly turns into something bacony and roasted. The sharp mint goes together with the fat sweetness of tonka beans. The finish is salty and woody, almost metallic. The alcohol is present, but doesn't bother me at all. A multi-layered and somewhat different Trinidad, I like it very much. 8.9
Review by Mentalo
Unfortunately, the alcohol is not well integrated. It certainly needed more time in the glass. Rather spicy profile with a fine fruity note and pleasant sweetness. I would have to try it a second time at my leisure
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
While the nose is still quite restrained and medicinal, alcoholic and rather less inviting, the taste improves with beautiful notes of menthol, tar, dried fruits, citrus fruits and slightly burnt notes. A good representative of the FPH Marks, albeit somewhat unbalanced and very astringent on the finish.
Review by Stijn Zino
Tasted this at The Road Rummers supertasting and gave this a second place. Then tasted it again at Salon Du Rhum and then I knew I had to get me a bottle! This not your typical Trinidad and that's why I think you get mixed reviews. But I like this one alot. It gives you Trinidad with a pleasent caramel sweetness. Lacks a strong nose but the long finish makes up for it. The alcohol is so well integrated that makes this such a nice rum tot drink. Maybe not that complex but I'm sticking to my score.

Angostura tasting with mto75
Review by Lukas Jäger
Trinidad DNA from the first sip! Mint and menthol, plus woody-leathery notes and somehow also a trace of dirt! Medicinal, maybe a bit of iodine, which is what you like about Trinidad. The only negative point for me is the quite present alcohol, but you can easily overlook it!
Review by Joel Segerstav
Needs its airing, and a bigger glass. A bit rough, complex but kind in its own way, Ten Cane meets dirty TDL. (Reversal in tastemovement compared to ten cane rum club 42)...a bit caroniesque that opens with "diesel" but goes forward with a sweeeter taste and skips the tar. Fun to experience!
Review by R Wehner
Delicious nose, light, woody spice, honey or fruit sweetness, a little smoke, needs time, very promising
Review by Solidfunk
Lemon, oak and cherry cough syrup. Pours golden. Lots more wood in the mouth. A serious kick of pepper in the finish. Some more lemon there. This is pretty intense in the mouth. A little caramel, some roast.
Review by Matej
After a long loong time. Another one from my favorite destination. Scent, at least for me, is absolutely perfect. Lot of fruit, barrel, mint, hont of dirt with combination of caramel, medicinal and little bit of alcoholic scent. Taste at first was sweet (chocolate) with menthol flavor. Take another sip and I found flavor of coffee, some dried fruits and some citrus. Finish was not too long, very interesting for such high content of alcohol, with lot of minty-fruity-barrel flavor. Very pleasant sample, I would like to try it again sometimes maybe try to mix it with little bit of water. Just try it.
Review by Jacques etdom
A very Trinidadian rum marked by tart berries, smoke, and wood. Relatively smooth on the palate in terms of aromas. Lacks a bit of heaviness and complexity on the palate.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 1999. With 8.6 out of 10, it belongs to the better ones I've had in my glass.
Review by Stefan L
Tasted at Jocke's place.
Review by Newton
Great Trinidad! Love those minty notes, with slightly funky, almost industrial notes in the background. A touch of wood and dried fruit adds to the profile. Would definitely buy a bottle!
Review by JFehr
GRF13 Fun, subtle sweetness. Unfortunately quite astringent
Review by Sebastiaan Linssen
Excellent rum. Fantastic taste. High percentage, but still well integrated. Definitely recommend.
