RX1059 Very good Single Cask 220 bottles Above 250€

Introducing The Legend Collection HTR, an exceptional rum hailing from the renowned Caroni distillery in Trinidad. Distilled in 1997 from rich molasses, this rum has aged gracefully for 21 years, contributing to its distinct flavor profile. This limited-release rum, bottled by independent bottler Spirits Shop Selection, has only 220 bottles available, boasting an ABV of 63.8%. Users appreciate its notable aromas of rubber, vanilla, barrel, caramel, and metallic, while savoring its roasted, vanilla, barrel, mineral, and caramel flavors. Although some mention it could benefit from better ABV integration, the consensus is that it's a solid Caroni offering that reveals its true potential after some resting time. Experience this unique rum for yourself and join the conversation.
