    How does this rum taste?

    TMCG (Whisky-e) HTR is a bold Caroni expression from Trinidad that invites rum enthusiasts into its complex world. Bottled by Cadenhead’s at cask strength after 20 years of aging, this rum presents an aroma of rubber, iodine, tar, cinnamon, and caramel. Our RumX community has noted a layered experience with spicy, medicinal, and chocolate nuances on the palate, balanced by hints of fruit and spice. While its dark, technical character might not appeal to everyone, it remains a true and intriguing representation of Caroni's legacy for those willing to explore its depths.

    Despite the age this rum has very little wood to it, not a bad thing perse because all the dirty Caroni notes are there. The nose is fruity with spices and all the lovely Caroni flavours; rubber and tar. In the back i also get medicinal notes and caramel. The palate takes off where the nose left off. Spicy with fruit, spices and then rubber and tar. After resting there is even more flavours, chocolate, light earthy and medicinal notes. The finish is long with tropical fruits, spices, tobacco and light menthol notes. A lovely Caroni with a twist.

    Very round and balanced Caroni with a very classic profile. Caramelized banana, milk chocolate, cinnamon, dirty smoky notes, burnt rubber, some menthol and vanilla. Very well integrated alcohol! Surprisingly delicious!

    Ve vůni hezký mix technických tónů, hlavně guma a nemocnice, v kombinaci s lehkou vůni vanilky, pepře, skořice a ovoce. Chuťově je hlavně cítit koření, pepř a ovoce, ale pak následuje velmi povedený technicko pepřový závěr.
