Aggregated from 18 community reviews.
Oak-forward, Foursquare‑like TDL powerhouse For experienced palates: a 16‑year TDL at 62% that leans strongly toward American oak. RumX members describe vanilla, caramel, roasted wood, mocha and gentle mint. Think Foursquare‑meets‑TDL, best with a splash of water.
Fans of bourbon‑cask, Foursquare‑style rums who enjoy dry, oak‑forward profiles at high ABV and want to explore a different side of TDL.
Those sensitive to high ABV or looking for a fruity, minty modern TDL profile; newcomers may find the 62% and oak focus too much.

Review by zabo
Diesen Rum wollte ich eigentlich schon vor einem Jahr spliten, aber et stieß auf wenig Interesse. Beim zweiten Anlauf hat es nun endlich geklappt. Persönlich hatte ich keine große Erwartungen und wurde mehr als positiv überrascht. Insgesamt eine Klasse Abfüllung, die ich nur weiter empfehlen kann.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
So tonight I'm trying a bunch of post 2000 TDL's. All above 60%. Lucky me...tough job ;) Wigman is one of the most well known Dutch whisky connaisseurs. This is his second released rum, besides a very heavy yet classic flavoured Caroni. His bottles are pricy but high end and good quality. Let's see how this one is doing. Nose: American Oak/Bourbon/vanilla. More on the woody/spices side than fruitiness. Still some berries though. Elegant for 62%. Taste: yeah definitely a very Amerikan Oak driven TDL. Which is interesting and not overly common for this distillery (I get why a whisky guy chose this). Big in flavours yet still elegant. Not a dirty edge. Clean. Very well balanced. Very TDL but also bot quite so. Fruit has def been pushed to the back by the fruit. Cognac. Overall: a very decent US oaky TDL which sets itself apart from most TDLs in style. Not much berry. Not a diesel-y or dirty edge. Balanced...yes.

Klasse T.D.L hier. Tolle Nase, überwiegend holzig, aber auch etwas Vanille und Mokka sind erkennbar. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls viel Holz und Fass, außerdem etwas Vanille und wie ich finde recht würzig, aber echt lecker.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,4:On the nose, the first impression we get is very similar as Foursquare with roasted wood notes like caramel, nuts, coffee, spices with cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg, bourbon yellow fruits and coconut.A molasses is a bit floral, there is some tobacco and menthol. On aeration, the fruits are dried with apricots, citrus pops up and burnt sugar. 8,5:On the palate, the attack is again very Foursquare like, with its main characteristics, pleasant, delicious. The molasses is vegetal, as some tobacco is noticed, there is menthol.After resting, egg yolk note is pretty obvious, actually pleasant, some licorice and pear make their presence. 8,5:The finish is long, dry with roasted, spicy wood, creamy, egg yolk note still here, some mint nicely rounds up some bitter notes.

Stříbrný adventní kalendář RFC 2024. Poslední dobou mě TDLka dost baví, takže i na tenhle jsem se dost těšil. Nos je plný vanilky, dřeva, sladkých tónu karamelu ale také náznaků technických tónů. V se jedná o hutný olejnatý kousek, který je zprvu sladší, následně projeví ovoce a přejde do přijemných náznaků dubu. Moc hezký kousek

Mátové jen lehce ve finiši.
Review by Johannes
The TDL 2006 vintage doesn't quite convince me most of the time. Here, too, I would put the rum more in the column style like a continental Foursquare or Panama: chocolate, vanillin from the oak barrel, a little wood, but not much more.
Review by Thunderbird
Dieser TDL kann mich nicht so wirklich überzeugen. Wenn er etwas Kirscharomen gehabt hätte, könnte es auch gut als Ten Cane durchgehen… mir fehlt jegliche Minze bzw. Menthol. Der Alkkhol ist jedoch recht gut eingebunden
Review by Jakob
Entwickelt mit etwas Oxidation eine irritierend intensive Fruchtnote, die ins Künstliche abgleitet. Daneben finden sich eher die Aromen, für die TDL vor den 2000er Jahren bekannt war und die die Destillerie in die Nähe von Vertretern des spanischen Stils gerückt haben - Eichenholz, Karamell, Vanillezucker, dezente Melassearomen. Der Jahrgang 2006 scheint sich hier als eine Art Reminiszenz für die früheren Jahre einzuspielen und tanzt damit in der post-2000er Ära deutlich aus der Reihe. Zwar aromatisch vielschichtig, aber nicht gleichzeitig ausgewogen und in subjektiver Betrachtung zu wenig begeisternd. Findet aber sicher anderweitig Liebhaber, ein interessantes Release auf gehobenem Niveau.
