Aggregated from 38 community reviews.

Complex, minty, dirty Trinidad blend For experienced palates, this unsweetened Trinidad blend (Caroni, Ten Cane, TDL) at 57.5% rewards patience with dark fruits, mint, rubber/tar and roasted wood. Sipped neat, it evolves beautifully with air, as 38 RumX reviews confirm.

Perfect for

Fans of complex, higher-ABV Trinidad rums who enjoy minty TDL profiles with a measured Caroni dirtiness and plenty of dark fruit and roasted wood depth.

Less suitable for

Beginners or those sensitive to 57.5% ABV, and drinkers expecting a Caroni-heavy funk bomb rather than a TDL‑driven, balanced Trinidad profile.

8.8/10

German Rum Festival 2025. Un nez fruité et floral tel qu’on l’attend d’un TDL, un petit côté pimenté et fermenté aussi. Du bois en soutient et des notes de Caroni à l’arrière-plan. De la douceur aussi, un nez tout à fait complexe. L’entrée de bouche est puissante, ample et fruitée. Puis les arômes diminuent lentement et dans l’équilibre des saveurs. Le menthol est beaucoup plus présent qu’au nez. La finale est très longue et, tout à la fin, les arômes de Caroni persistent longtemps. Un très beau rhum, même si le milieu de bouche est un peu plus faible. Un beau blend aussi même s’il n’est pas tout à fait abouti.

Messebewertung: Guter Blend, bei dem man alle Bestandteile schmeckt. Die Caroni Aromen sind vor allem in Gaumen und Abgang zu schmecken, jedoch recht flach ausgebracht. Hatte ehrlich gesagt mehr erwartet

Ein weiterer Navy Rum aus diesem Herbst… und ein sehr gelungener. In der Nase zuerst eine Ladung TDL mit Minze, der dann Caroniaromen folgen. Das fängt vielversprechend an. Am Gaumen anfangs gebranntes Karamell, sowie deutlich frische Minze (TDL) und anschließend erneut Caroniaromen (dreckig/fruchtig). Im Abgang setzt sich diesesWechselspiel fort. So muss ein Navy sein 🤩 Edit: Im Navy-Tasting bestätigt er seine Punktzahl erneut

#5623 30.08.2025 Tasting at the German Rum Fest 2025. This is a great blend and I understand why it got sold out within 30 minutes. All the lovely notes of Trinidad are there, the mint, the rubber and light tar, fruits and roasted barrel notes. Price to quality is OK in my mind.

8.2/10

Ein kreativer Namr für einen guten Trinidad Blend. Als Soul of Trinidad würde ich diesen für mich aber nicht bezeichnen. Die Aromen, welche ich Trinidad Rum zuordne, sind definitiv rauszuschmecken/riechen.

8.7/10

8,7:On the nose, roasted wood notes like caramel, perhaps cream toffee, spicy, flowery molasses, minty, with some eucalyptus, tea, rubber, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, roasted nuts are out, mocha and chocolate, allspice, dried fruits, some dirt and tar. 8,8:On the palate, the attack is fresh with tea, minty molasses, eucalyptus, a bit grassy, fruity with tropical and citrus fruits, industrial, a bit dirty with rubber and tar, the wood is roasted with nuts, butterscotch, later perhaps with caramel, fudge, confectionery, slightly smoky and spicy. 8,6:The finish is medium long, dry&tannic, industrial with rubber, tar, slightly dirty, the oak is strong with cardboard, a bit roasted, smoky with dark chocolate, confectionery, spicy with allspice and the fruits are tropical, citrus, the molasses minty..
