CDI T.D.L Rum Club Switzerland No.3 Trinidad (Ex-Rivesaltes) 2011
The Rivesaltes wine cask is the whole story here — overripe grapes, plum, date and a sweet-wine note that surprises people expecting a straight Trinidad. Underneath, the TDL comes through with cocoa, pepper and a licorice finish, plus a recurring hint of mint tea. At cask strength it's complex and fruit-forward. A few tasters loved the duel between cask and distillate; one felt the wine buried the TDL.
The community says- Grape-plum fruit
- Complex TDL layers

Nose : Overripe Grapes, Dried Fruits, Plum, Date, Apricot, Guava, Sherry/Sulfur/Sweet Wine and Mint Tea. Taste : Sherry/Sweet Wine, Kumquat, Guava 😋, Plum, Apricot, Date, Licorice and Mint Tea. The aftertaste Sherry/Mint Tea/Guava stays a long in the mouth 😋
Review by Denis
Nose: Intense and expressive. Dried fruits, brown sugar and guava form the aromatic base. Behind them are fine woody notes and a pleasant freshness with a light hint of mint. Palate: Complex and well balanced. It starts with a touch of pepper, followed by well-integrated oak notes and a pleasant sweetness that gives the rum structure. Cocoa and dark berries add extra depth and complexity. Finish: Long and lingering. The subtle sweetness carries through to the end and turns into spicy notes of liquorice and liquorice root, which stay present for a long time. Conclusion: A multi-layered Trinidad rum with a nice balance of fruit, wood, cocoa and spicy notes. The gentle mint character on the nose, together with liquorice and liquorice root in the long finish, gives it a distinctive profile.
Review by David Riek
3. Abfüllung des Rum Club Switzerland in Zusammenarbeit mit Charles Hofer. Ein sehr gelungener TDL. In der Nase riecht man das Rivesaltes-Barrel, der Geschmack liefert sich ein Duell mit dem typischen Trinidadgeschmack, sehr spannend und komplex. Am Gaumen kommt zuerst der TDL, dann das Fass, bevor dann die Fruchtigkeit zum Zuge kommt. Super Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis.
