“Great mint schwartzee note. Creamy and intense. Reminds by the intensity and rubber note almost a bit of the 2000 Caronis. A highlight of the 12th German Rum Festival.”

“Very nice nose with mint and some fruits. Compared to other 2001 releases, this one goes a step further however. More intense herbal notes ie black tea and resin/spruce notes from a forrest in the morning. On the palate a bit to wood forwards to make it to the top of 2001 TDLs for me.”

“Tasted as part of the RA online tasting for the RumX lottery 06/2023. With this bottling Rum Artesanal is back in the game after a perceived dry spell. Mint and tea galore. Superb. Can keep up with the best T.D.Ls between 2001 and 2003. I hope the level can be maintained.”

“RumX Community Tasting with Rum Artesanal to the Tasting Lottery June 2023: Absolute aroma bomb. Fresh mint, wood, slightly meaty-leathery, some subtle sweetness...wow. Impressive intensity. For me, one of the absolute top rums from the early 2000s TDL vintages and already a highlight of the 20023 releases.”

“Multi-layered and with power. Typical of a 2001 vintage. For me, however, not the preferred vintage of the TDLs. Compared to the others, the sweet tobacco note stands out. All 01 vintages need a little water for me, otherwise too dominant imo.”

“Great deep nose. Unfortunately, my opinion at the fair is confirmed on the palate. The rum has been in the barrel for one or two years too long. Especially in comparison to the powerful other 2001 TDLs (also from RA). There is some mint in the background. But not much. Nor do I have the alleged Caroni associations of the younger brothers here. The bitters give the rum a much more mature note, which will certainly have its fans. The finish has roasted aromas, bitters and very light workshop notes. Reasonable PLV at the present time. End of the bottle: nicely infused again, I like it much better today.”

“There are 2001 vintages that are a bit heavier, but this one is a great representative. The long maturation makes it a little woodier in the finish, which suits this "dirty" Caroni note very well 👍 I would like to express my gratitude to Rum Artesanal for the flavor sets 🙏🏻”

“#4181 I'd consider this a light TDL, but still it performs pretty well. Lots of wood without it being too dominant. Lots of fruits and I love the minty note that sneaks up on you.”

“RumX Lottery June 23, RA online tasting. The sister barrel from 2 years ago had made quite a few waves. I only say "hidden Caroni"! So this one was allowed to age another 2 years continental (I mean, 17 years tropical). From my point of view this did him very well. On the 12th GRF the nose was in any case the reason to buy him immediately ☺️. Nose: beautiful, sweet fresh mint. Intense but still round. Behind that some vinegar ,which makes it seem slightly dirty in combination. Spicy-herbal and slightly caramel-sweet. Great blend. 9.1 Palate: very intense and initially astringent and dry. Fresh mint totally! This transitions into menthol, mirroring the slightly "dirty" character of the nose. The high alcohol makes it bacony, with umami flavors that also transition into sweetness, have tonka bean associations here. I like it very much. 8.9 This one lasts a long time. Who likes mint, is exactly right with this rum.”

“Very heavy, very oily, fresh and intense. Bitter strong black tea, some mint and lychee but also extremely much wood and tannins, very astringent on the finish. Holds taste not quite what he promises on the nose. Therefore, the point deduction for me because the wood is a bit too dominant and bitter. Nevertheless, a beautiful TDL Vintage!”

“Wow, this one is a real house number! Olfactory it goes in the direction of 2000 Caroni, taste typical mint notes, super complex, a slightly dirty note. Really good!”

“Wow, intensive Nase, die sehr pflanzlich, blumig und fruchtig ist, ergänzt von etwas Honig. Der Alkohol ist gut integriert. Bemerkenswert ist der extrem lange Abgang nach Litchi! Vermutlich nicht der komplexeste Rum, aber ein außergewöhnlicher und sehr guter allemal.”

“Have this also again in peace and individually nachverkostet. Actually, I wanted to get me a bottle of it. But somehow he just does not pick me up at all. So in retrospect, I find the RA bottlings unfortunately all on a descending branch.”
