"Passt mir sehr gut. Dreckig, intensiv auch das Volumen passt gut. Aprikosen Note im Abgang war überraschend. Sicher nicht der wildeste Caroni. Gefällt mir aber tiptop."

"Einer der letzten sauberen caronis. Habe mit dem abfüller einen sipp in Barcelona genossen und fand ihn Mega. Es fehlt zwar der gummigeschmack fast vollständig aber das tut ihm sogar sehr gut wie ich finde."

"02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Day 2 Notes Dark in colour. Nose Fresh, fruity, banana, light coconut, light wood, faint smoke, light leather, faint mint. Palate Oily, fresh, light wood, faint tar, fruits, pineapple, light coconut, faint earthy, light mint. Finish Medium to long, light wood, oily, light roasted wood, dried fruit, light pineapple, faint leather. Extra note. ABV very well integrated so an easy drinkable Caroni."

"A straight Caroni... with convincing nose... on the palate not quite as intense and complex... but quite good!Especially the continuous dirty and berry note convinces!"
