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.
Typical Caroni. Everything quite in balance. Everything is a bit muted therefore easier than most Caronis. Very drinkable and still complex.
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.
Nose: Overwhelming smells of tar, rubber, bicycle tube pair with some berries (raspberry, blackberry..), a bit minty and for sure the barrel 😜.Mouth: Tar, Rubber, bicycle tube with a lot of spiciness. The tastes of the berries are well noted. Here you‘ll find a lot more various notes like: licorice, roasted almonds, dark chocolate, espresso, toasted barrel(oak).Finish: Medium-Long with some notes of the barrel(oak), dark chocolate, smoky, espresso.. Very delicious (not dirty) finish 🤓I enjoyed this one a lot. Very solid Caroni with all classic edges and a smooth elegant finish.
