Cadenhead‘s T.D.L TMAH 2005
Sip this neat, and give it air first — at 67.4% it's strong but not scratchy. Members find berries and cassis leaning into light rubber, that unmistakable TDL mint and menthol, plus dried fruit, oak and a touch of "Armagnacy acidity." Complex and a bit weird in the best way. One taster flags a bitter edge on the finish as the main downside.
The community says- Berries and cassis
- Distinctive TDL mint
- Bitter finish

Aggregated from 18 community reviews.
Strong, minty, berry-driven Trinidad sipper A berry-and-mint TDL that rewards patience. Most find the high proof well-integrated and love the complexity; one reviewer's only gripe is a bitter close.

Review by Gregor
A really nice berry tdl. 67% is intense and strong but not scratchy or unpleasant. This tdl is really very exciting and complex. I usually associate tdl with very herbal and sometimes lychee-like flavors.

03.01.2020 In a cottage with friends for the weekend with a few bottles of rum. Notes: Dark in colour. Nose: Intense, light wood, berries, floral, mint, light rubber, light caramel. Palate: Intense, warm, balanced, raisin, berries, rubber floral, light roasted. Finish: Long and warm, wood, dried fruit, mint, light chocolate, mint.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Very strong and fierce. Full bodied. Again the berries/Cassis leaning a bit towards rubber. Give it some time. It needs the air. Its a pretty intense rum but there are so many great flavours. A bit of that classic Armagnacy acidity and oakiness. I rate this slighty higher than its bro from Rasta Morris. It is just a tad more complex and weirder. Love it!
