    How does this rum taste?

    Most reviewers praise this Caroni for its unique balance of intense mechanic shop aromas, unmistakable notes of tar, rubber, and vanilla, and a long, dry finish with spices and caramel. Some enjoy it after resting in the glass to open up its full flavors. While several compare it to its 1998 sibling, many find this limited 24-year-old release to be a fascinating, complex choice worth seeking out.

    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.
