T.D.L Angostura No. 1 Oloroso Sherry Cask
Sherry-cask fans who like a Trinidad TDL profile — raisin, prune, toasted toffee and dark chocolate over roasted oak — will find the most to enjoy here. It's mild and dry, with almost no alcohol burn at 40%. But opinions split: a few tasters called it flat and watery, one blind-taster ranking it dead last for being "very diluted."
The community says- Roasted cocoa & sherry
- No alcohol burn
- But: Can read thin

How does T.D.L Angostura No. 1 Oloroso Sherry Cask taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Dry sherry-cask TDL, mild but sometimes flat Divisive. Lovers get roasted cocoa, sherry raisin and sweet tobacco; detractors find it thin, spirity and flat for the money. The sherry can read a touch heavy.

Review by Stefan Persson
I little too much Sherry feeling in my opinion. The nose have scents of toffee, sherry and chocolate. At the palate it’s woody and dry with flavors of oak, toffee, sherry and chocolate. The finish is medium long.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is the most recent special edition from Angostura. Unfortunately they have changed the bottle design, a bit sad because I really liked the cubic bottle of the 2 first ones. The nose is typical Angostura with raisin, molasses and sherry. The palate follows with toasted toffee, nuts and prunes. Later there is vanilla and oak. The day after the vanilla and oak are very clear in the glass. The finish is medium long with roasted oak and raisin.
Review by Andi
I had this rum in a blind tasting, it smelled very alcoholic and flat, slight vanilla and sweetness. On the palate it definitely didn't get better, very flat and alcoholic. I would never have guessed Trinidad. Not recommended for the high price.
Review by Johannes
Flat, little flavor, lots of neutral alcohol, very slight sweetness like in a finish.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Beautiful matte on the bottle under 100€. You can feel the alcohol, but very drinkable. I recommend it even to beginner rum lovers to discover new flavors. The mint from TDL is an unmistakable taste that you will never get tired of.
Review by paulgi86
Very nice rum I have to say! It appears as if TDL profile is the one I really connect with! The sweetness seems to be countered well with the roasted notes I always seem to find in the TDL rums. Always a winning combo of roasted and sweet for me Nose - toasted oak, roasted coffee, roasted coca beans or fragrant dark chocolate, runny/syrupy caramel, balanced, mild, approachable and next to no alcohol burn or prickle Taste - dried fruits, nice spices (baking spices), coffee, hint of leather, tobacco or sweet tobacco note, toasted oak & dark barrel char Finish - medium Another pleasant bottling and one that will definitely be on my to buy list BUT at £100 it’s not cheap - it’s about £20-£30 too expensive for what it is. Will wait to see if a generous sale shaves off a decent amount or grab one at auction The only I would consider paying £100 with no complaints would be if they re-released this as a 46% non chill filtered version THEN it would be worth the price tag However despite the 40% ABV and high price tag the quality of the liquid for me is a winner!
Review by Michael Janek
The smell is nothing special but the taste is interesting, slightly sweet, a bit nutty, chocolate, cherries
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Blind tasting on 01.02.2024, 5th rum Nose: very, very restrained, reveals nothing Palate: weak, weaker, weakest; bland and very diluted Of the eight rums tasted, this is the worst and leaves no lasting impression at all. So insignificant that I even forgot to take a photo. Really, it's from Trinidad? The fact that I was completely wrong in my estimation doesn't make the rum any better.

Read full review ›I tasted this rum for the first time with my friend Lukáš Pytela at Air Cafe in Brno. It was quite a coincidence because we were planning for a cognac cask, but it wasn’t available at the moment. And thank goodness, because it really got us.
