Trinidad Distillers Limited — TDL, the Angostura-owned distillery — is the source of most Trinidad rum that isn't the legendary closed Caroni, and Cadenhead's gave a cask of it eighteen years. Cadenhead's is the oldest independent bottler in Scotland, founded in 1842 and based in Campbeltown, and it bottles rum the way it bottles whisky: no added sugar, no coloring, no chill filtration, with the distillery, year, and cask details on the label. This is TDL column-still rum aged eighteen years, most of it in Scotland's cool climate, bottled at natural strength; check your label for the exact ABV and outturn. The Lone Caner, reviewing a similar Cadenhead's TDL cask, was honest that Trinidad column stock doesn't set collectors' hearts racing the way Caroni or Demerara pot still does — and then found it a good rum, cleanly made, with the long aging doing real work. Expect what eighteen years does to light Trinidad rum: a nose of caramel, vanilla, dried fruit, and gentle oak with a faint tropical note, opening into a smooth, rounded, elegant palate of toffee, baking spice, and wood, finishing long and warm without the funk or the heat of the bottler's Jamaican and Guyanese casks. Honest note: this is the gentle one in Cadenhead's rum range — for a whisky drinker crossing over, or an aged-rum sipper who wants polish rather than punch. Neat, or with one cube.
