The Anam na h-Alba 2009 TDL Trinidad Single Cask Rum is a captivating spirit hailing from Trinidad and Tobago, meticulously crafted at the T.D.L distillery. Bottled by Anam na h-Alba, this expression stands out with its significant 65.7% ABV and a limited release of only 215 bottles, making it a prized possession for rum enthusiasts. Distilled in 2009 and aged for 11 years, this rum offers a complex and multifaceted profile. Its amber hue invites you into a rich aromatic experience with notes of raisin, tobacco, burnt sugar, and honeycomb spiced delicacies. On the palate, the rum reveals layers of caramel, dark chocolate, and leather, intertwined with sweet and spicy undertones. The finish is long and evolving, featuring toffee, astringent notes, oak, and a hint of burnt sugar. This rum mirrors a blend of both Spanish and English styles, featuring a symphonic balance of tropical fruit, caramel, chocolate, and spice, albeit lacking the usual minty note associated with TDL. This singular single cask rum is a testament to the craftsmanship and heritage of Anam na h-Alba and the T.D.L distillery.
This rum is unique due to its high ABV of 65.7%, its limited release of only 215 bottles, and the fact that it combines elements from both Spanish and English rum styles.
This expression is less typical for TDL, missing the usual menthol note but offering a rich blend of caramel, toffee, and spicy undertones. It is somewhat reminiscent of rums from Foursquare and Beenleigh.
Due to its high alcohol content, it is recommended to sip this rum neat, with a splash of water, or as a part of a well-crafted cocktail to fully appreciate its complex flavors.
