“Fin de la bouteille et nous avons peur que le rhum soit éventé. Tous les arômes sont présents avec peut-être un assagissement dû à la longue oxydation en bouteille. Le nez est sur l’atelier mécanique mais aussi sur les fruits tropicaux. La bouche est ample et gourmande. La finale est magnifique ! Un excellent représentant de Caroni.”

“A Caroni as intense as it is elegant. Time has surely mellowed it, but the result is there: the nose offers a lovely contrast between the freshness of menthol, the roundness of dried fruit and caramel, spices and the empyreumatic notes of Caroni's style (licorice, smoky notes, hydrocarbons and well-roasted oak). A high-class rum. The attack on the palate is just as lively. The intensity of the oil and machine-shop notes rivals the warmth of the spices and smoky notes. A touch of saltiness and tropical fruit add a pleasant new dimension to the palate. Despite a powerful, dry profile, the alcohol remains very well integrated. The finish is extremely long, with mentholated, even medicinal notes, contrasted with warmer, roasted and bitter notes reminiscent of Caroni's dirty style. Exotic fruit, tire, rubber and tar all play off each other on the palate, exalting the senses. A rum that was clearly worth the effort when it was first released, and one that I'm sure you won't be able to taste any time soon. Nevertheless, this Millésime 2000 is a true nectar that perfectly represents the illustrious defunct distillery.”
