The Wild Parrot 2002 TDL Distillery Trinidad WP02621 is a remarkable 20-year-old rum, distilled in 2002 at the Trinidad Distillers Limited (TDL) and bottled in 2022. This exquisite rum embodies the essence of Trinidad and Tobago, promising an intricate, double-faced experience. With an ABV of 59.1% and a 700ml bottle size, this rum marries power and delicacy effortlessly, making it a prized possession for any rum aficionado. On the nose, it captivates with a fresh fruit aroma, transitioning into complex herbal tones, varnish, and refreshing hits of papaya and lime. As the aroma unfolds, it sweetens with honey and fresh apple notes, offering a rich and spicy fruitiness that is both fresh and inviting. The palate of The Wild Parrot 2002 takes on a darker, more robust tone, featuring layers of roasted accents, tobacco, chocolate, caramel, and woodiness. This rum is a tropical fruit bomb, balanced by dry woody notes that lead into a long aftertaste, leaving a trail of dried fruits. The flavor profile is further enriched with hints of leather, licorice, coffee, and subtle spice. The finish is long, fruity, and fresh, opening with a basket of exotic fruits, herbs, and menthol. It then darkens with intense notes of wood, spices, dark chocolate, and slightly smoky flavors, ensuring a memorable and satisfying end to the experience. Universally acclaimed for its perfectly balanced blend of intense and gourmet flavors, this rum's eloquent finish is both fresh and fruity, yet intensely dark with hints of spice and smoke.
This rum stands out due to its intricate double-faced profile, expertly balancing fresh fruity aromas with a darker, more robust palate. Its 20-year maturation and high ABV of 59.1% add to its complexity and depth.
The Wild Parrot 2002 is often compared to the legendary Caroni rums from Trinidad. It showcases a similar complexity and balance, making it a worthy successor to its defunct neighboring distillery.
You can expect a blend of tropical fruits, herbal notes, woody accents, and dark chocolate, culminating in a complex, fresh, and long-lasting finish.
