The Rum Artesanal Trinidad Single Cask 2001 has garnered mixed reviews. Some praise it as an absolute aroma bomb with mint, wood, and a slightly meaty-leathery profile, making it one of the top rums from early 2000s TDL vintages. Others find the rum to have aged a bit too long, giving it a dominant and somewhat bitter woodiness that might not appeal to everyone. Despite this, it is still considered a highlight of recent releases and a superb example of a TDL vintage rum.
