T.D.L Plantation Ferrand „Légendaire“ cask (Exclusivité Château Bonbonnet) 2009
Mint and menthol lead the way here — that unmistakable TDL Trinidad signature — backed by tropical fruit, spice and a faintly medicinal, cognac-cask edge. Distilled in 2009 and finished in Ferrand's "Légendaire" cask, it's rich and long on the palate. Several tasters found the rum and cognac profiles blend into a nice balance, and the 51.3% shows a little warmth without getting hot.
The community says- Signature TDL mint
- Long finish

How does T.D.L Plantation Ferrand „Légendaire“ cask (Exclusivité Château Bonbonnet) 2009 taste?
Aggregated from 27 community reviews.
Minty, spicy Trinidad with a cognac finish Well liked: a minty, spicy TDL with a long finish where the cognac finish sits in balance. A few note it's good but not the best TDL out there.

Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Pas de WE Plantation Rum Addict sans MasterClass. Et donc pour cette 3eme partie, revenons sur la dégustation du samedi matin (ça a un peu piqué j’avoue) animée par Alexandre Gabriel himself ! 🥇TDL 2009 - 51,3% 🥈WIRD JAWS 600-700 d’Esters - 65,6% 🥉Clarendon 2012 - 51,2% 🍫WIRD 8Y - 47,2% 🥩 WIRD High Esters 2500-2600 d’Esters - 64% 🍹 Xaymaca - 43% TDL 2009 : très riche/gourmand avec une sacré longueur. Sélection disponible uniquement au château. Il a la particularité d’avoir bénéficié d’un finish d’1 an de fût de cognac légendaire. Je n’ai pas hésité longtemps et j’en ai embarqué une bouteille au doux tarif de 90€. WIRD JAWS : et oui Plantation va se lancer dans les high esters. Celui-ci est plutôt vif (surtout du matin). Mais il a un beurré funky plutôt intéressant. De la noix de coco équilibre la bouche. Je pense qu’avec quelques ajustements il pourra être au top. Affaire à suivre … Clarendon 2012 : Jamaïcain très sage qui a eu droit à un finish d’1 an en fût de Calvados de Drouin (sera présent dans la prochaine salve des Single Casks 2023) WIRD 8Y : il fait le taf mais avec un finish porto un peu trop prononcé WIRD High Esters : un peu (beaucoup) trop extrême pour moi (surtout après une gueule de bois). Un profil viandard très déroutant. A retester un autre jour dans un autre contexte si cela sort un jour … Xaymaca : bon rapport Q/P pour la mixologie
Review by Rodolphe
Encore un exemple que TDL fonctionne bien avec le Cognac chez plantat.... Planteray 😉. Les profils s'harmonisent dans un bel équilibre des arômes. C'est vraiment sympa à boire.

Great TDL, but there are better ones. Taste is as normal minty, spicy with quite long aftertaste.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Krasne matovy na lahev pod 100e. Sice je citit alkohol, ale velmi dobre pitelny. Doporucuju i zacinajicim rumarum pro objeveni novych chuto. Mata z TDL je nezamenitelna chut, ktera se vam nikdy neomrzi.
