“Tasted together with Leo Tomczak at the 11th GRF and can only agree with Leo's assessment here in all respects. The fact that this Caroni is not really successful, especially because of the finish, becomes even clearer when tasted in parallel with the "Slippery" (RX451), as we did.”

“Entry-level Caroni, which would certainly come across better without the sherry cask. Very round, almost too flat. Nice Sipper also for non-nerds.Price too high.”
