"Neutral, nothing in it is dominant" is how one member sums it up, and a lot of tasters agree. This 7-year Trinidad molasses rum leans oak and vanilla with a touch of citrus and cocoa, but stays a bit flat, and at 42% the alcohol pokes through for some. A couple found young fruit and caramel they liked. Nice box and label, gentle taste.

How does Zaka Trinidad taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Mild oak-and-vanilla sipper that plays it safe Middle-of-the-road for most: oak, vanilla and light citrus, but many call it flat or too alcoholic for the strength. A few enjoyed the fruit and caramel; not many were wowed.

Review by Claes Nilsson
Almost boozy but mostly oak and vanilla on the nose. The vanilla gives sweetness but otherwise a fairly dry taste, a little peppery. Fairly short finish. 42% feels a bit low, would probably lift with 50+%. 7.3 out of 10. A rum I pour when I want to drink well without analyzing too much😉
Review by Quentin Leseigneur
It's very flat and the product is almost too strong in alcohol on the palate despite its low strength.
Review by Dos Marios Kristos
Neutral, nothing in it is dominant and extra by its taste.
Review by Rum_diver
Nice box and worked label. The rum’s aromas stay on a single thread from nose to finish: Woody, vanilla, caramel, a hint of hazelnut. Not bad, but nothing very special either. It’s a good rum for a beginner or as a gift to a novice, because it’s not sweetened or colored.
Review by rum_sk
Alcoholic 👃, nothing special to be found. No fruit, just a little bit of oak and vanilla somewhere in the distance. 👅 offers again alcohol very badly integrated, slight sweetness of oak barrel so vanilla, and maybe cocoa beans at the very far spectrum. Not a fan.
Review by Kieron Wood
Until nosing chocolate, raisens Tasting light collum blend of young seven years, rum chocolate and oak Orange and peanuts on the tasting
Review by Tom Buteneers
I was looking forward to this when I saw the bottle... but I find the taste a bit disappointing, I expected more from it.
Review by TheFrenchRefill
Overall, I find it rather good and interesting! With nice notes of fruit, caramel and rather young wood.
Review by JonasTh
More complex but less rounded taste than Zaka Mauritius. Okay.
Review by Richard Krupa
A lot of fruit mixes in the nose and taste. The rum is on the sweeter side but not bad at all. I will definitely be happy to try more from Zaka's countries.
