House of Rum Trinidad 2012 (70cl, 64.3%)

This Rum was distilled in 2012 by Trinidad Distillers, the sole remaining distillery in Trinidad and for nine years this Rum tropically aged in the warm humidity of Trinidad, which lies just off the coast of South America, in ex-Bourbon Whiskey casks, before it was shipped to the UK for a further three years of continental ageing in our much cooler temperate climate before it was bottled by House of Rum in 2023.

Nose – Wonderful ripe pineapple, followed by tropical, exuberant fruity notes of mango reminiscent of a bustling Caribbean street market

Palate – Initial luscious caramel sweet sensation followed by opulent notes of sweet dates and currants. Smooth, with lingering smoky tobacco and malt loaf notes in the finish.

Trinidad Distiller was established in 1948 in Laventille, Trinidad, as the manufacturing hub for Angostura Bitters. Since then, it has been producing a wide array of rums, bitters, and liqueurs under the Angostura and, from the 1970s onwards, Fernandes brands. Following the closure of the iconic Caroni in 2003, TDL stands as the sole rum distillery in Trinidad.
