Quite approachable nose, with lots of vanilla and caramel added to the typical dirty notes. The palate adds some smoke and coffee.

A well made rum, but for a good Caroni lacks intensity! I miss the typical notes!

A very sweet and velvety profile on this rum with vanilla and caramel, chocolate as well as sweet fruit. I thought of the Velier Royal Navy batch 1 in a light and fruity version. It is very pleasant. In the mouth, a very different impression. The barrel makes its appearance. The vanilla is still there. An impression of smoked, chocolate. And a strange metallic taste. Not unpleasant. But I was expecting something else considering the nose.Rather long finish with a big bitterness. It's good because it's a very particular profile. But I remain a little on my end because I find that it lacks overall depth. With a more peachy side, it would have been a killer.

It does not have the classic firey Caroni profile from the velier tropical aged releases. A much more approachable rum and if that is better or worse will be in the views of the drinker. A rather elegant nose with a strong vanilla vein, some caramel and the faintest hint of rubber (maybe I was looking for it). The mouth is fairly restrained, strong mouthwash and menthol notes, with green apple and spearmint, alongside some spicy barrel notes. The finish brings bicycle tubes and a warm nutty finish that goes on for some time. It’s a good rum, a bit unusual to be honest and not a typical Caroni
