Spirit Gallery T.D.L Trinidad 2003 21yr 60%

RX20587 Very good Column Still Rum Single Cask 369 bottles Under 250€
“Exceptional minty, fruity, and complex Trinidad rum.”

This Trinidad rum, distilled in 2003 and aged for 21 years, offers an exquisite experience with its complex aromas of mint, blackcurrant, and eucalyptus. Released by Spirit Gallery at 60% ABV, it is a limited edition with only 369 bottles. Notable for its balance between fruity and spicy notes, the rum is celebrated for its persistent finish and expertly integrated alcohol. This release stands out as a remarkable representation of TDL's distinct character from the 2003 millésime, with a flavor profile likened to a sophisticated old cognac, complemented by subtle "dirty" undertones reminding tasters of the Trinidad terroir.

“After I tasted the rum solo yesterday and was quite impressed by it, it has to go up against another 2003 today: my choice is the CdI Caksus (RX11936), which I gave a whopping 89 points to back then. And what can I say: it has a really hard time against this brand new TDL from the still very unknown Bottler Spirit Gallery! If one is ahead on the nose and then the other 😉, although neither of them is yet highly recommended, but rather greets you shyly with slightly alcoholic vapors, the heavyweight from Spirit Gallery turns up the heat on the palate and literally pushes the Caksus against the wall. To put it plainly: the CdI Caksus gets the maximum palatable flavors out of the 56.3%, especially menthol, while the Spirit Gallery, by virtue of its (fairly well integrated) 60%, mainly presses a huge spice onto the palate (menthol plays a rather subordinate role). Conclusion: The Caksus TDL is more the light-footed, good-humored lightweight boxer who plays at the top of his class, while the Spirit Gallery TDL is the impetuous, somewhat fierce heavyweight boxer at the beginning of his career, who can hardly walk with power, but already has a lot of potential. A somewhat unequal fight, which fortunately still ends in a draw.”

“What a slap in the face! The nose is from another world, with lots of fuits, menthol and spices, The palate follows with lots of fruit and a tea-bag base. The finish is out of this world, with no end in sight. In short, in my top 5 without hesitation.”
