    Not a classic beauty but with her own charm. No short dance-off in the disco followed by a quick number. Here you have to go out for dinner and a movie first😜 2-3 drops of water, if you like, help to round it off. Needs air and time. I let it breathe for over an hour. Certainly not for the daily sipper. Dark and heavy, it fits me extremely well.

    Un échantillon récolté au Lucerne Rum Festival. Un nez de fruits jaunes, d’atelier mécanique et d’orange amère avec un léger atelier mécanique. L’entrée de bouche est très fruitée, fruits jaunes (poire) et fruits exotiques à égalité, puis des arômes de Caronis arrivent. C’est bon, mais pour un Caroni je peux regretter un manque de complexité aromatique. La finale est assez courte, austère, marquée par le bois et elle semble un peu diluée. Le verre vide est marqué par le bois, les notes d’atelier mécanique et un peu d’acétone. Il ne manque pas grand chose pour être un grand Caroni, le fruité est indubitablement là, mais il reste un peu déséquilibré et il manque de complexité. Peut-être que le fût n’était pas de la meilleure qualité ?
