Anyone who likes their Trinidad rum on the dry, spicy side will find plenty here. The nose is all toasted toffee, coconut and a menthol note behind the sweetness; the palate turns drier — vanilla, black tea, honey and a green bell-pepper edge. At 64.2% it's a firecracker. One member found it darker and woodier than the classic minty TDLs and bought a second bottle anyway.

Comparison with the T.D.L from Chorlton RX18983 and Roots RX20517. Roots: very intensely fruity. fruits of all kinds in the nose and on the palate, which taste increasingly candied on the palate. a typical T.D.L mint note surrounds it all. the finish is medium-length and unspectacular. a great T.D.L that is hard to match in drinkability. - 87 points. Chorlton: also a typically fruity 2009 T.D.L. more profiled, a bit dirtier, fruits are overripe, with more earthy and towards the finish also mineral aromas. - 82 points. I really like the 2009 T.D.Ls! If the alcohol were better integrated in both, they would have scored higher. Looking forward to what else is coming.

Not much going on on the nose for the first go. Rather closed up with wood and some burnt caramel. Does not deliver on the fruit and/or herbal side of the TDL profile unfortunately. A bit more interesting on the palate. Yet still not very exciting, with only some hints of herbs and fruits showing up to the party.
Review by Timo Groeger
Already one of the better T.D.L's. Mint is naturally also clearly noticeable here, but we also have vanilla, herbs, and honey. It's clear that this is a T.D.L, not like the ones before ::::---)
Review by Alexander Rasch
A TDL on the dark side of power. Concentrated but complex on the nose. The picture continues on the palate. Menthol only comes out at the back and discreetly in the background. Anyone looking for classic TDL notes with lots of mint will be disappointed here. For all neutral rum fans, the rum is definitely interesting. I'm satisfied, as it also works very well in a Cuba Libre, where its 64.2% makes quite a splash.
Review by zabo
So either it's my mind because I read Chorlton Honey, or there really is something in this T.D.L bottling that makes me associate it with whisky. I taste something smoky/peaty, the typical T.D.L. markers are rather restrained here.
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
The nose is full of toasted goodness. Toffee, coconut and a minty note behind the sweetness. Sour cherries too. The palate is less sweet and fruity than the nose would suggest. Vanilla is a overused as a note, but works well here. Tonka beans, black tea, honey and mint also present. The finish is long. Caramel, the mint from the palate mixed with some green bell peppers. It's complex and pretty damn good. Already bought another bottle.
Review by Henry Davies
Sugar and spice. A real firecracker. Easy drinking and some great spice. Interesting rum. Classic TDL notes, menthol and green pepper. It’s enjoyable but nothing unique or worth buying a full bottle. For the price an good value option.
Review by Master P
Smell very sweet but pleasant with red fruits. The taste is very sweet, but still ok. With honey herbs, mint just a hint. The ABV is briefly pungent, but after a few sips it becomes rounder. Personally, I expected a bit more for a 2009, but it's still ok.
Review by FischeJ
Good mixer, but for pure enjoyment a far cry from other, better TDLs. More wood and caramel here. Some fruit and a hint of mint.
