Review by TheJackDrop
"Nothing to say, what a blast TDL! This one's a little closed but I loved it all the same :) In summary, my degutation notes: On the nose: Black tea, Herbaceous, Mentholated, Fruity, Litchi, Leather On the palate: Menthole, Black tea, Tannins, Litchi, Red fruit Finish: Mentholated, Tropical fruit, Tannins".
Review by Mirco
Sensationeller TDL, genau nach meinem Gusteau. Minze und Pfirsich gepaart mit vielen weiteren Noten. Zusätzliche dreckiges wie mans bei Caronis kennt. Die bisherige 2001 TDL RA Abfüllung erreicht das Niveau natürlich nicht. Die zusäzlichen %ABV bringen viel Komplexität mit.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
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.
Review by Jakob
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.
Review by Frank
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.
Review by Gregor
Wow for me the best of Grf 2023
Review by BTHHo 🥃
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 🙏🏻
Review by Alexander Rasch
Ein sehr toller TDL mit viel Fasseinfluss. Evtl ein ticken zu viel!? Ich finde es entsteht ein tolles Zusammenspiel von Holz, Minze, Kräuter und Frucht. Das ganze wirkt dabei leicht modrig. Sehr intensiv. Benötigt nur wenige cl um lange zu unterhalten.
Review by Alex1981
Solid TDL with a typical minty note. Develops more towards fruits and wood with a very dry & long finish. Still probably the best GRF2023 release
Review by Filip Šikula
Nádherný plný nos mátových tónů, doplněná technickými vůněmi, tabákem a čajem. Chuť komplexní, smetanově hladká plná čerstvé máty, která přechází do špinavých nádechů. Integrace alkoholu dokonalá. Závěr střední,a nabízí lehkou kyselost, která sevře jazyk.
Review by Oliver
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.
Review by Tim
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.
Review by Johannes
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!
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Toller 2001er TDL. Alkohol gut intergriert.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
From the RumX RA tastingset. Ah TDL. Lots of berries immidiately in the nose. Some freshness. Nice. Great start. The nose translated 1:1 to taste..lots of cassis! Freshness. Sweet licorice. Bay leaf. Bitter spicy wood. Not as heavy as expected at 67%. Not very surprising either. I hoped to get more tarry/ashy/Caroni notes, but this is a straighforward red fruit bomb. Very chewy.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Probiert auf dem 12. GRF: Starker 2001er TDL, der sehr nah an der Beinahe-Legende „No-Caroni“ liegt. Etwas mehr Dampf, dafür eine Spur weniger Minze, insgesamt nur sehr knapp hinter dem Schwesterfass. Trotzdem mal wieder eine schöne Abfüllung
Review by Thunderbird
Meets expectations, not an absolute top but very solid! PLV is top
