Wu Dram Clan Caroni Single Cask 1997
Highly praised Caroni single cask: intense mechanical notes, dark wood and spices balanced by vanilla, caramel and fruit, with a very long, dry finish that rewards slow, attentive sipping.
Seasoned Caroni fans who enjoy high‑proof, oily, mechanical profiles with tar, rubber, heavy oak and a dry, very long finish from long tropical-style aging.

How does this rum taste?
Dark, intense Caroni workshop power
If you already enjoy bold Caroni like late‑90s vintages, this single cask pushes the dark workshop, tar and oak side even further while keeping enough vanilla and caramel to stay balanced.
Beginners, anyone sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers who dislike tarry, rubbery, heavily roasted notes and prefer soft, sweet, easygoing rums.

This one needed to rest a bit longer than the other two in order to release all its flavours. The nose has wood, rubber, vanilla and banana with leather and ginger trailing behind. I'm not sure if I get eucalyptus or menthol in there but there is a light note of one of them. The palate is intense, lightly dry and spicy with rubber wood and spices followed closely by banana and lovely caramel. The finish is very long and dry with wood, rubber and spices balanced by caramel.
Vraiment top, j’adore et le classe juste en dessous de l’autre #2109
Schöner Tropfen, der für mich aber dennoch etwas hinter den Erwartungen zurückbleibt.
Liegt für mich etwas hinter dem 98er aufgrund der zu starken röstigen Noten.
